About us

In this era of rapid world change, people seem to have gradually forgotten the value of "slow work". Mass production, rapid consumption and instant replacement have become the norm. However, there are always some things worth being slowly crafted, cherished and kept in the warmth of life - a soft scarf, a hand-knotted hat, and the patience and emotion contained in a strand of yarn.
GraceWorkshopUS was born precisely under such an idea.

Let warmth be tangible and let sincerity be visible

At GraceWorkshopUS, every piece of work is not an assembly line product, but an "independent life" that has been patiently nurtured.

We believe

The time spent on manual work is not a cost but a value.
From yarn selection to structural pattern making, from density testing to final shaping, a hat requires dozens to hundreds of adjustments. Every time the thread is removed and a new start is made, it is to make it truly suitable for the user.

Warmth comes from the touch and also from the heart.
The yarn we choose must be soft, skin-friendly and durable. It must be suitable for pasting on the forehead and between the neck without causing itching or discomfort. Because Julius Manni has always believed that good works are not only "good-looking", but also "comfortable to wear".

We do not pursue speed, but only quality.
In this era where countless hats can be produced in an hour, we insist that every piece of work is completed by hand, every stitch is precise and firm, and every thread end is meticulously hidden. We hope that customers will still be willing to wear it many years later, rather than discard it after one season.

Iii. Production Process: The journey from yarn to Work

The workshop of GraceWorkshopUS is not large, but it is well-organized: a whole wall of yarn is arranged from light to dark, knitting needles of different sizes are neatly placed in wooden boxes, and on the long table are unfinished brims of hats and the edges of scarves. Every morning, Julius Manni would brew a cup of warm water tea to gradually get himself into the rhythm of creation.

1. Yarn selection: The first step towards quality

The yarns we select for each piece of work have been tested repeatedly. Sometimes for the same color of yarn, we would approach four or five suppliers just to find the one that feels the softest to the touch, has the most stable composition and the most durable color.
To ensure that the finished product does not deform, we will conduct multiple tensile tests. To avoid pilling, we will conduct a friction test in advance. To confirm the color fastness, we will soak, wash and dry the yarn, and observe the changes.

2. Knitting: Every stitch is the result of patience

The beauty of hand-weaving lies in its "irreplicability".
Each hat requires thousands of needle holes, and each scarf is the result of hours or even days of patience.
As the work gradually takes shape, those repeatedly calculated and constantly adjusted patterns will be hidden deep in the fabric like secrets - they won't be seen, but they determine the comfort and durability of the work.

3. Finalization and quality inspection: Ensure that each piece can accompany you for a long time

After the weaving is completed, we will gently shape the work to make the patterns more even. Each finished product will undergo strict inspection: whether the thread ends are properly hidden, whether the dimensions are standard, and whether the elasticity is good.
We believe that true craftsmanship is not only about "making it", but also about "doing it to the best of one's ability".

Iv. Products and Inspirations: Originating from life and also from emotions

The designs of GraceWorkshopUS do not follow trends but come from small inspirations in life:

The warm color from the first cup of hot cocoa in the cold winter

The golden hue from the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the yarn

The patterns on the scarves of pedestrians on the city streets

Fresh tones from nature

This comes from Julius Manni's understanding of the word "companionship" in his heart.

We hope that each piece of work is not merely an accessory, but a "companion" that can accompany you through the cold morning wind, night walks, travel journeys, and work commutes.

V. Relationship with Customers: Not a transaction, but a resonance

Julius Manni often said:
What I sell is not hats and scarves; what I offer is a feeling of being warmly cared for.

Many customers will write to us to tell us after receiving the works:

This is their child's first winter scarf

This is a birthday present for my mother

This is the first warm item they have on their way to studying abroad

This is a tenderness that accompanies them through difficult times

These feedbacks made Julius Manni even more determined about the brand's direction
We hope to be a genuine warmth, a gentle force in life.

Six. Future: Let the warmth of Handicrafts continue to be passed on

The goal of GraceWorkshopUS is not grand. We do not aim to open a large number of stores or develop mass production, but rather hope to maintain our original intention:
With hands, patience and gentle touch, continue to bring warmth to everyone who needs it.

In the future, we will continue to introduce more soft, friendly, life-friendly and textured handcrafted works. We will also constantly improve the patterns and techniques to maintain the brand's most original charm.

We believe that only things made with heart can truly touch people's hearts.

GraceWorkshopUS wants to tell every customer:

Every choice you make keeps the world of handicrafts alive.
Every bit of your support helps us weave warmth further.

Welcome to GraceWorkshopUS
Here, there is no rush, only the sincerity of making it slowly.
Here, there is no sound of a cold factory; only the gentle rhythm of yarn rubbing.
Every piece of work here comes from a pair of hands that want to make the world a little warmer.
