Thank you for making a shirt. I wear this in Tokyo.
In Japan, Krochetkids' products are not easy to buy because there are no
store. So I bought on the Internet.
I hope more people in Japan know about KK and how wonderful KK is.

Please take good care of yourself.

Thank you so much lesly for making my beautiful black shirt! You did an amazing job!

Hi,
Thank you very much for my Metallica global citizen shirt.
This was sent to Montreal, Canada
Funny fact, my business partner is from Lima (Rubini) . Quality travels the world !
Tx.

Thank you thank you so much for the sweatshirt! I just received it and I love it! It is so soft and I plan on using it as often as possible. Know that I am thinking and praying for you!

Hi Lesly,

I would like to thank you for the excellent work you did on my Stay Wild
Tee that I purchased recently. After looking it over, trying it on,
washing and drying it and then looking it over again before I wore it, I
couldn't find one flaw in it, not even a loose thread. That's rare.

Have you ever heard of the book "Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and
Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype by Clarissa Pinkola Estes? It's one
of my favorite books and when I discovered the Stay Wild Tee I knew I had
to have it.

Thank you so much for putting a smile on my face.

Sincerely,

Ronnie Gayle

Lesley, thank you for your skillful crafting of my shirt. You have done an outstanding job. I am grateful. I wish you the best. Muchisimas gracias por la camiseta. Es perfecta. Dios le bendiga.

Warmest Regards,

It's not easy to go to school and work at the same time (I just finished school and worked full time while I went) but you can totally do it! Don't ever give up on yourself.

You will learn so many new and cool things in school and have so many opportunities open to you. Every time I wear my shirt I will think of you and hope that as I am sitting in my classroom, you are doing the same. Know that we all support you and love you, and even though we may never meet face to face, you have already greatly impacted my life and I am glad to share this moment with you. Good luck in all you do!

Thank you so much for my shirt! It is now my favorite one, and i can't wait to buy more! I wish you the best of luck in school and everything that you do afterwards! :)

Thank you so much for making my shirt! It is so comfortable and I really love wearing it. It's by far my favorite shirt! Keep up the great work - you have a real talent for what you do.

Dear Lesly,

Thank you so much for making my sweater. My daughters bought it for me for Mother's Day so it is very special to me. It is absolutely beautiful. I pray that this gift will help to support you in every way possible.

Thank you!

I purchased a Northwest t-shirt for my son for his birthday and I'm amazed by the quality of it. It's so well made! Thanks so much!

Thanks Lesly,
The long sleeve tee feels great when I wear it -- fabric is comfy warm but not too hot -- it looks good too --- the cut/drape is noticeably comfortable as soon as I put it on -- obviously the pattern was laid out properly on the fabric -- I appreciate your attention to that detail because sometimes tops are placed on the fabric incorrectly, across the grain for example and they feel restricting. I just washed it and it kept its shape -- that is so appreciated.
I am also glad to hear that you enjoy your job and that you are treated with respect -- a basic right -- rock on -- I love supporting business that gives back and I am totally into 'handmade'.
Keep peace, faith and gratitude alive!

Hi Lesly !
I just wanted to say "THANK YOU !" so very much for my wonderfully cozy grey pullover hoodie you made for me ! Wow ! The fabric is so soft and comfortable but honestly it's your workWOMANship that makes this my new favorite shirt ! Every seam and stitch is so solid and meticulous ! You are VERY good at what you do ! And I will keep this shirt for many years to come. Thank You again and may God Bless you and your family. With love & gratitude, Beth Ann Meehan, Nantucket, MA, USA

Hi Lesly,
I wanted to thank you for doing such a beautiful job on my 'Love Africa' tank top! It is my favorite shirt to wear, it's so soft and comfortable. I really appreciate you taking the time to do such quality work.

Ms. Lesly Castillo,

I just received my 'the Ryan Tee' (in black) today! I was so excited to open the mail and tried it on right away. It is so soft, very well made, extremely comfortable, and I cannot wait to wear it. Thank you for all the hard work you put in to making it. It is a quality item. I'm impressed! I read your story-- you sound like such a hard-working woman. Keep dreaming-- your dream of opening a clothing store and becoming a certified secretary are amazing dreams-- and not too far off-- you are already making quality clothing.

Thank you for making my new favorite shirt! I will think of you when I see the tag- I love that you signed your name in it. And I'll be sure to tell my friends about you and KKI when they compliment this shirt you made!

Dear Lesly Castillo,
Thank you so much for my sweater, it really means a lot to me. I got it as a Christmas gift and it was definitely my favorite gift because it was hand made by someone.

I wear this sweater proudly knowing that is was made by someone as special as you. My sweater is so soft and warm and it is really well made. It is also absolutely gorgeous and it is so cute.

Hello!

I purchased one of the grey sweatshirts with the crochet back. I love it! It's my new favorite shirt by far! I am wearing it right now in fact even though it's a bit too warm:) Good luck on going back to school and pursuing your dreams. It will be totally worth it but I hope you are also enjoying the journey too! I've always wanted to visit Peru, it looks beautiful. I almost lived there as a kid actually. Again, good luck and thank you!!

Best,

Hola Lesly!

I cannot thank you enough for my beautiful Plum crocheted sweater. I received it as a gift for christmas and it was the best thing anyone has given me. The color is so amazing, and when I wear it I think of you and how talented you are. You are a true inspiration to me, and make me want to continue to work hard to pursue my dreams like you. I am an interior designer and live in California. I value hand made items so much. I can tell you put a lot of hard work and love into the sweater and it shows. I have been to Peru and loved it. You are from a vibrant, colorful, hardworking country. I hope you continue to share your craft talents with the world.

WITH SINCERE GRATITUDE,
Ashley

Lesly, I just got the sweater you made! It is so soft! Thank you SO MUCH! I'm so happy to be supporting you! I pray that your goals are met and that you keep trying! I respect you greatly. You're an awesome and valuable person. I shall remember you from this sweater always. Thank you so much, again. Be blessed!

I love my sweater. My father was born in Peru, he moved here to California when I was 30. I have a lot of relatives in Peru that I have never met. I hope my sweater helps you in anyway I can. I love it. :) Thank You

Thank you Lesly for making my beautiful long sleeve shirt. It is so soft, and i appreciate the integrity you put into your work!

Lesly,

The hoodie you made is so soft and warm. I love how unique it is!

Thank you for sharing your talent!

I wanted to thank you for such a beautiful shirt I purchased for my son, mustard yellow and navy with a great pocket sown in. I found this such a personal opportunity to thank someone that actually made something I ordered so unique that I had to write.
My boy will handsomly wear his t-shirt and his amazingly soft TOMS sweat pants ( that I want to permanently borrow ) around his college campus in California, ( we live and are from Dallas, Texas ), knowing how hard you work. Keep saving your money. GET A TRADE! A CERTIFICATE, A DEGREE! Whatever you need to, to be self sufficient to take care of yourself. You are young and beautiful ( obviously talented ), and if it helps you stay motivated, I am a 40 year old mother of my beautiful 18yr old son, and a 13 year daughter, through many unexpected life changes, I too, am learning to pave a new path for life. Be grateful for your youth because I feel as though it has hindered me. Keep one thing in mind, always. You are making beautiful things and paving the way for more unique opportunities as this. To bring back a little personalization in a very far removed society. Just brilliant ! I will post on Instagram when I can catch my boy wearing his new shirt. Thank you for the energy, time, and drive you put into what you do.
Sincerely,
Angela

I received your top for a Christmas gift and I LOVE it! Thank you so much! It's fun and unique and I will be happy when I wear it.
