About Only Meesh

Crocheter and knitter Michelle Nichols has always loved making things by hand. Back in art school where she was studying graphic design, Michelle learned the very basics of crochet from a fellow classmate. She made and gifted many basic single crochet scarves to family members.

During graduate school, Michelle picked up crocheting again as a way to relieve stress and be creative. She was obsessed with the infinity scarf design a.k.a. cowl, which was gaining increased popularity in the fashion world. Soon friends, family, and colleagues started asking her for custom orders. Michelle launched Only Meesh Handmade in 2011 and was accepted into her first craft fair in Philadelphia.

In Only Meesh's collections, you will see a lot of bold colors. Her
love of fashion translates into unique, beautiful color designs and patterns. Each piece is handmade by Michelle because she understands the value of building a relationship with each person. This joy and comfort shows in the final product. Her mission is to bring more color into people’s lives through handmade crochet and knit pieces.
