Ivani Adamastor’s new line of crocheted clothing and accessories is a reflection of the designer’s amazing eye for detail and passion for creating new things.
Ivani creatively combines new and reclaimed materials into special one-of-a-kind items.
Producing her own clothes from whatever materials she could get her hands on demanded much creativity and skill.
Ivani loves breathing new life into unused fabric which adds a unique touch to her beautifully crocheted designs.
Every item is hand crafted with lots of love and care. Ivani hopes you will enjoy the warmth and beauty of these hand made items as much as she enjoys making them.
