Our story

It started at home, with two hands and a dream

Kashi Hastkari didn't start in a factory. What began as a simple hobby — knotting threads, crocheting with love, and creating fabric art — slowly transformed into a passion, and then into a brand.

"I started creating just for the joy of it. Friends and family loved the work, encouraged me to share it with more people, and that's how a hobby became a business. I also started taking workshops in different artistic fields to spread this joy of making."

From a small corner in Varanasi, we are now growing into a community of makers, learners, and art lovers.

What we make

Sustainable, handmade, soulful

We specialize in organic fabric jewelry, macrame bags, slings, clutches, pouches, crochet accessories, scrunchies, and custom handmade treasures. Every piece is lightweight, organic, and made entirely by hand.

Our vision

A Made in India brand the world recognizes

Right now, Kashi Hastkari belongs to Varanasi — but our dream is much bigger. Our mission is to revive and preserve traditional handcrafts like Macrame & Crochet — arts that are slowly being forgotten in the age of machines — and bring them back into everyday life.
