Hello I am Rachel the creator of Evie and Co.

I first taught myself to crochet when I was expecting my son, just over 7 years ago. I wanted to create a handmade toy that he could love and play with but would also hold huge sentimental value. I wanted to create something special that he could treasure. A symbol of our love.

After creating my first toy, I expanded my range and have since sold a variety of toys to many children across the UK. My aim is simple. I want to create toys that last beyond the childhood years. Toys that can envoke memories or be passed on to future generations. Toys that are special and unique to that child.

To a child, a toy is love, security, comfort and fun. To an adult, a childhood toy provides the doorway to a world of treasured memories. We pride ourselves in making toys that hold a special place in your heart.

This year, Evie and Co has expanded our product range to include embroidered knitwear. I look back to my childhood (a happy time in the 80s and 90s) when novelty knitwear was a big hit, although sometimes slightly tacky.

I aim to create quality, personalised knitwear that is unique and fun, matching your child's personality and a key wardrobe piece that can be paired with any oufit.
