Who is Nomad Stitches?

Hi! My name is Sandra Gutierrez, a knitwear designer from Mexico, a mom, lover of travelling and food and massive geek.

HOW IT ALL STARTED

Nomad Stitches was born in Valencia, Spain in 2016, but I started knitting and crocheting as a young girl in Mexico under my mother´s tutelage. I have long since left my home country and lived in nine other countries, seen many places and experienced wonderful things.

I am now living in the South East coast of the UK, getting inspired everyday by the lifestyle, and the incredible nature that surrounds this beautiful place! Since moving here our family has grown quite a bit since we added Rocket, a rescue dog from Bulgaria so full of love, and our lovely daughters Magnolia and Luna, who brighten our day every day.

  • “Great things are not done by impulse, but a series of small things brought together.”

    — VINCENT VAN GOGH

PHILOSOPHY

Nomad Stitches believes in promoting sustainable and conscious shopping. This is why I mostly use natural materials and work with small brands when I can.

In that same spirit, my crochet and knitting patterns are designed so that you can choose whatever material you would like to use to make them. There's no need to buy super expensive yarns and you can choose the materials that suit your needs and ideology better.

We also believe in individuality and body positivism, which is why the written patterns come in an array of sizes from petite to plus.
