This artist started making crochet toys as a hobby, but then realised that apparel was a better idea as she wanted people to know that crochet was more than just making granny caps, sweaters and shawls. Nancy S, founder of hook.me.uppp, crochets funky bikinis and bikini cover-ups, bohemian crop tops, skirts, tunics, belly dance belts and bralettes among other things. She doesn’t mass produce and her collection is limited edition only. Customisation entirely depends on how creatively challenging the piece is. However, you can also buy her creations on Amazon and save on delivery charges since ordering  directly through Nancy will see a DTDC rate apply.
