The Story of Veselka Canine Couture

Part 1 Our Story Veselka

Hi thankyou for joining up.

I wanted to introduce Veselka so you can see faces behind the name.

To start off with please forgive any spelling mistakes.

I am still learning English and writing these emails to you helps me learn.

My name is Lili from Odessa, Ukraine.

In 2022 I joined my husband Jason in London.

Later that same year I started offering the first hand knitted coats called rainbow coats and since then there have been several new creations I would love to tell you about.

We are 40 somethings who love animals, antiques and crafts.

Soon after I moved to London I got fed up buying Marlon (our chihuahua) boring coats and harnesses that didn’t fit.

So I decided to knit Marlon something special myself. After months of evolution I finally produced the first Veselka coat for sale which was called the rainbow coat.

I cant wait to tell you about this special rainbow coat that doubled Marlon’s size Its,

certainly no ordinary knitted sweater. 

Marlon got such an amazing response wearing his rainbow coat in the parks and on facebook I decided to offer my creations long before even having a website or anything.

By the way, did you know Veselka means “Rainbow” in Ukrainian?

… and the warm feelings associated with rainbow? ~

We named the business Veselka because Marlon made so many people smile in his original rainbow knitted coat. 

If you are reading this you have probably bought a Veselka I can only say thankyou, it makes me feel very privileged.

Thankyou for your support.

In the part 2 I would love to tell you about the green Merino coat that started everything and the elegant old lady who helped in the strangest way.
