About Claude Yazbeck Milky

Claude is a mother of three, grandmother of four, and a lifelong maker who finds deep joy in creating with her hands. Though she studied educational psychology, her true language for over 30 years has been design, expressed through crochet, fabric, macramé, and any material that sparks her imagination. Her art takes shape in pieces you can wear, hold, and live with: kimonos, bags, clutches, macramé pot hangers, and more. Each creation begins as a simple idea and evolves into something with its own unique story.

Claude doesn’t follow trends—she follows inspiration. For her, the magic lies in bringing something beautiful to life from nothing. It's a way of staying grounded, connected, and in tune with the world around her.
