The Story Behind
The founder and the recycled yarn every CHOLLENTI is made from.
The Founder
It all started during a knee injury, when I discovered crocheting for myself. What began as a creative pastime quickly turned into a true passion.
Today, I crochet bags using recycled T-shirt yarn – each piece handmade, unique, and one of a kind. CHOLLENTI is for everyone who values sustainability, individuality, and urban style.
Inspired by cities. Designed for the world, carried by you.
What CHOLLENTI is made of
Materials
For my bags I use recycled T-shirt yarn by Hoooked. The material is made 100 % from fabric offcuts of the European fashion industry, processed in Portugal under fair conditions. Because the yarn comes from real leftover materials, every spool is limited and cannot be reproduced – once it is gone, it is gone. Fashion changes constantly, and that is exactly what is reflected in the shifting colours and textures.

Individually designed
You can pick your favourite colours from my current yarn stock and choose between golden or silver metal details. Each colour is available in small quantities only – so every bag stays a true one-of-a-kind. If you are unsure about the colours, I am happy to advise you personally and find the combination that really suits you.
Made by hand
I crochet every bag myself, with care, quality and love for detail. No piece is like another, because small differences are part of handwork – they tell the story behind each unique piece. The result is a bag that not only looks beautiful but is made with meaning.
