knot & Clay
At Knot & Clay, we celebrate the beauty of artistry and craftsmanship by creating handmade treasures that tell a story. From intricate cross-stitch pieces to stunning clay jewelry, every item is thoughtfully designed and meticulously crafted to bring a touch of joy and individuality to your everyday life.
OUR Story
Knot & Clay was born from a love for traditional crafts and a desire to create something meaningful. It started as a small passion project, fueled by the idea that art doesn’t have to be confined to galleries—it can be worn, displayed, and cherished in everyday life.
We combined the rich, timeless charm of cross-stitch with the playful sophistication of handmade clay jewelry, creating a brand that celebrates both heritage and modernity. Each piece is crafted with care, using only the finest materials and an unwavering dedication to quality.
What began as a hobby has grown into a thriving small business that connects people through unique, one-of-a-kind creations.

Hi, I’m Raisa Thornley, the creative mind and hands behind Knot & Clay. As a lifelong lover of crafting, I’ve always been drawn to the beauty of handmade things. Cross-stitching allows me to weave intricate stories, while clay gives me the freedom to sculpt modern, wearable art.
Each piece I make is inspired by the world around me, from the subtle textures of nature to bold, modern design elements. It’s my mission to create items that not only bring joy but also remind people of the value of things made with love and care.
