Our story

AMÉLIE began at home - my brother was knitting a blanket, and my māmā was crocheting bags for the whānau. I desperately wanted to be part of that rhythm, to make something of my own.

Once I started, I couldn’t stop. Knitting quickly became an obsession - I’d spend every spare minute with needles in hand, learning, messing up, and slowly getting better. One of my nearest and dearest trusted me to make her a jumper (even though I’d never made one), and from that act of faith came everything that followed - friends, friends of friends, and eventually, everyone and anyone.

Now, AMÉLIE is still built on that same joy and whanaungatanga - but with a deeper connection to the stories and fibres that tie us to place. My knits are stitched with love, and each one carries memories, warmth, and a thread of home.

Made by hand, in small quantities, for every body.
Ka nui te mihi to each of you who wear these pieces and carry their stories forward.
