# Crocheted Chokers Handmade Freeform Necklaces and Wrist Warmers by Uloni By Elsa Blaine | Published 2009-03-02 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crochet-necklaces-handmade-freeform-jewelry-by-uloni References: [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5068234) Handmade jewelry is very fashionable. Uloni, from Hamburg, Germany, crochets these organic-shaped chic chokers and sells them along with matching wrist warmers on her [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dropshop) shop. The necklaces are very trendy yet have a [vintage flair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-jewelry) to them; their lacy effect is created by using fine wool and adding [beaded details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alhambra-collection). In true artisan form, Uloni makes each piece unique and one-of-a-kind. My favorite is the red and orange choker called “Riesenkaviar,” which means "huge caviar." It is currently available for $50. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 59% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Handmade Jewelry:** Opportunity for artists and artisans to create unique and one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces. - **Crocheted Accessories:** Growing demand for crocheted items such as chokers and wrist warmers as trendy fashion accessories. - **Vintage-inspired Fashion:** Rising popularity of fashion items with a vintage flair, creating opportunities for designers and retailers to cater to this trend. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Artisan Jewelry:** Opportunity for jewelry makers to specialize in creating unique, handmade pieces that stand out in the market. - **Craft and DIY:** Growth potential in the craft and DIY industry, particularly for crochet and other handcrafted items. - **E-commerce Retail:** Online platforms like Etsy offer a space for artists and crafters to sell their handmade products to a wider audience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Handcrafted Jewelry Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretty-weird.md) - [Y2K-Inspired Flower Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foufou.md) - [High-End Organic Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s-carter-designs.md) - [Painter-Themed Charm Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-at-the-museum.md) - [Stunning Organic-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organicinspired-jewelry.md) - [Luxurious Handmade Jewelry Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-handmade-jewelry.md) - [Vintage-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-jewelry.md) - [Bold Handmade Jewelry Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holst-lee.md) - [Consciously Cool Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment.md)
