Maker Spotlight

Cassidy Louie, CML Collective

Boldness, confidence, disability pride, and unapologetic joy in fiber-rich fashion.

Cassidy Louie of CML Collective

Cassidy Louie transforms boldness into fiber-rich fashion. Through CML Collection, she handcrafts crochet hats and accessories that radiate confidence, disability pride, and unapologetic joy.

Each piece carries a clear sense of self-expression. The work stands out, but not only visually. It carries voice, identity, and the kind of handmade confidence that invites others to trust their own style more.

What She Creates

Handmade crochet fashion and accessories that blend individuality, confidence, and visible creative voice.

Why This Matters

Cassidy’s work shows what it looks like when making becomes more than a product. It becomes statement, presence, and permission for someone else to take up space in their own work too.

In Her Words

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

What part of your own style have you been holding back because it felt too visible, too different, or not ready yet?
