Holly McGowan | Urban Crafts

Textile Designer

Holly is the founder and creative force behind Urban Crafts, a Northern Ireland–based knitwear brand known for its modern, hand-crafted designs and community spirit. What began as a personal outlet during her recovery from postpartum psychosis evolved into a thriving small business that blends craftsmanship with connection.

Each Urban Crafts piece is hand-knit freehand, without patterns, using Holly’s signature range of OEX-Tex certified chunky yarns. Her collections include statement knits, home décor, and the much-loved Mama & Mini matching sets, all made with care and creativity.

Alongside her collections, Holly runs hands on workshops. where she shares her passion for mindful making and helps others discover the joy of creating with their own hands.
