For You Design

Teal Blue Hat with Ivory Hearts - Fall Winter Fashion
"Hello and thank you for visiting ForYouDesign! I am a passionate crafter living in Istanbul, Turkey. My journey to the world of yarns and colors started as a little girl when my dearest grandmother taught me how to knit and crochet wonderful dresses for my dolls. Now as a mother of two beautiful kids, this journey still continues with love, care, and even much more passion. After graduating from university, I worked abroad and even then my yarns and needles were always with me to create for friends. I quitted my teaching job after the birth of my first child and have become a stay-at-home mom. This has made it much more possible for me to create my own designs. I use the best quality yarns for all my products. Each and every item is made by me in a smoke-free and pet-free environment with a great attention even to the tiniest detail."

QUEEN OF SQUIDS - GREY EXTRA SOFT CAPELET / WRAP
"I am in my early 40ies; I have studied social sciences, particularly psychology, and most of my life I had been doing some office work. I have travelled quite a lot and have seen so many countries and people who all urge the same – harmony. Because of some dramatic changes in my life I have encouraged myself to realize my dream and to do what I really love, thus bringing me joy, relaxation and harmony. I have been knitting since I remember myself; it has always given a possibility to differ from the crowd with my appearance, to express myself.
I get my inspiration from all around – nature, people, some events, the texture and the colour of the yarn itself and my head is always full with new images and ideas. I wish my hands could follow my brain as fast!:) I have never in my life used any patterns or instructions, I create everything instantly!
I truly hope that you like my creations and they will bring you new experiences and sensations!"
