A brand about creating art that feels personal & unapologetically different
We believe crochet is punk, flowers can be goth, and gifts made by hand hit harder.
About me
Hey, I’m so glad you found your way here. Welcome to Kootsiko, my tiny rebellion made of yarn. 🖤
In Greek, kootsiko means “small,” but this corner of the internet is anything but. It’s where I turn thread into attitude with crochet patterns for flowers and bouquets that tell their own stories.
Every design has a bit of soul, a touch of darkness, and a wink of humor. Whether you’re here to grab a pattern, scroll through the blog, or fall down the Pinterest rabbit hole of inspiration, you’ll find something that speaks your language. Handmade, heartfelt, and a little offbeat.
So dive in. Make a mess. Create something that feels like you.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing a little love for handmade.
Got questions or just want to say hello? I’m always here.

Making, not mass making
Working with yarn feels like coming home. There’s a quiet rhythm to it, from the first chain to the last stitch, and it’s pure meditation with a side of mischief.
I love turning something ordinary into something extraordinary, one knot, one loop, one idea at a time.
Most of my yarn is locally sourced because I believe what we create should feel connected to the world that gives us the materials.
Every flower, vine, and bouquet carries a bit of Cyprus sun, a whisper of imperfection, and a story worth keeping. This work is my way of connecting with people and sharing something made with care.

Handmade is a love language
This is not just about crochet. It’s about connection, the kind that happens when someone makes something just for you, or when you make something and realize it’s completely yours.
That’s why I keep designing, so you can create things that speak louder than anything with a barcode ever could.
Grab your hook, pick a pattern from the shop, and make something that feels personal, useful, and beautifully weird.
Come hang out
If you love moody yarn, rebellious flowers, and homes that look like art projects in progress, we’ll get along just fine.
