I started Frank&Olive while I was pregnant with my daughter, Olive.
I was finding it very difficult finding stylish and unique baby clothes, everything was either baby pink or had garish images on them.
I have always loved to express my individuality through the way I dress and decorate my home. I have also always been somewhat creative, having studied art at college and illustration at university - I just love making things.
So, while pregnant, I decided to teach myself to knit and crochet, so that I could not only have pretty, one of a kind pieces for my home, but I could also make beautiful clothes and accessories for my baby.
Once Olive was born, I started to receive lots of compliments on how she was dressed and people were eager to know where I'd bought her clothes from.
I began recieving emails and contact through facebook, asking if i would make crochet pieces for them too. Et voilà! Frank&Olive Crochet was born, specialising in not only gorgeous, unique baby items but also near enough everything else too!
