Who we are

Crafting Elegance, Enriching Lives. Our creations support artisans with fair pay and a commitment to sustainability.

Happy Vanilla Crochet, born from Yina's passion, is a tapestry of artistry and compassion.

We create unique, timeless crochet pieces that tell stories in every stitch. But our true masterpiece is the change we're weaving in the world.

With each creation, we empower female artisans in less privileged communities. We believe in fair wages, flexible work, and the dignity of craftsmanship. Our artisans aren't just workers; they're artists, mothers, and dreamers crafting paths out of poverty.

Sustainability for us means sustaining livelihoods, traditions, and the balance between humanity and nature. Each piece represents slow fashion and mindful consumption.

When you choose Happy Vanilla, you join a story of empowerment and positive change. Together, we're crocheting a world where every stitch counts, every artisan thrives, and every creation makes a difference.

Join us in celebrating the art of crochet and making an impact, one beautiful piece at a time.

Our journey began in the simplest yet most profound way—a passion for crocheting.

Born from Yina's passion for crochet, we began as a home-based craft and blossomed into a global artisan network. Yina's intricate creations, born of patience and love, soon adorned local markets in Richmond and Chiswick, captivating admirers and fostering a community of craft enthusiasts.

As demand surged, Yina's challenge became an opportunity. She reached out to fellow artisans, starting in China, creating a supportive network of crochet lovers. This expansion wasn't just about growth; it was about empowering craftswomen worldwide, particularly in Africa and Asia.

Today, we are more than a brand – it's a vibrant community celebrating craftsmanship and providing fair opportunities to talented artisans globally. Our journey from a single pair of hands to an international network of creators showcases the power of passion and creativity.

In every stitch, we continue to weave a world where beauty, empowerment, and connection intertwine, making it warmer and more colorful, one at a time.
