I’m Elsie Goodwin, a fiber artist based in Claremont, California.
I work mostly with macramé and natural fibers, creating pieces that bring warmth and a sense of calm into everyday spaces. My work is rooted in the idea that what we make, and how we make it shapes how we live, gather, and feel.
Over the years, I’ve hosted creative experiences and collaborated with brands like Miu Miu, CHLOÉ, VINCE., Netflix, VANS, Knoll, Alchemy Works, and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, along with creating work for West Elm, Modernica, and Kevin Barry Art Advisory.
Alongside my artwork, I create simple, approachable in-person creative experiences because I believe life feels better when we make things and I genuinely love teaching others.
I’ve been knitting and crocheting for over 25 years and run an Etsy shop with more than 30,000 sales.
At the core of it all, I believe making with our hands is essential to our overall (creative) wellness.
