Our Story

Sew and Saw began as something deeply personal—a quiet ritual in the middle of uncertainty.

I moved from India to Norway in the winter of 2020, just before the world shut down due to Covid. I had left behind the familiar chaos of home, and arrived into a season that was cold, grey, and unfamiliar.

Rebuilding a life in a new country was harder than I had imagined. I was trying to find my footing, my people, and a sense of belonging. In the uncertainty of that season, I found comfort in creating with my hands.

Macramé became a way to anchor myself when everything else felt like it was shifting.
What started with a simple plant hanger soon turned into coasters, bags, and wall pieces. Through knotting, I explored texture, form, and color — and slowly began to feel rooted in a place that didn’t yet feel like home.

At Sew and Saw, you won’t find mass production.

You’ll find handcrafted, made-to-order pieces — each tied with care, time, and intention. Some are created in collaboration with you, customized in color or detail to reflect who you are and how you live.

I work with natural and recycled yarn. Everything is made slowly, because I believe good things take time — and that what we carry, wear, and place in our homes should hold meaning.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for choosing slow craft — and for giving handcrafted things a place in your home and life.
