Iβm Clarisse, Brazilian-born and mum to three boys (yes, my hands are full!). I started Mimi to share the newborn knit traditions I love, partnering with artisans in Brazil who put real care into every stitch.

The story behind each colour
In Brazil, itβs tradition to dress newborns in special knitwear, where many colours carry a meaning for the babyβs first days. With Mimi I get to share this heritage, bringing artisanal knits made with care into modern familiesβ lives.
Red
The classic βcoming-homeβ color in Brazil. Red symbolizes protection, health, and good luck. Itβs often the very first outfit a baby wears outside the hospital.
Yellow
Represents happiness and prosperity. A bright, cheerful choice said to bring joy to the babyβs journey ahead.
Green
Symbolizes hope and renewal. Green knits are believed to bring calm, balance, and wellbeing.
Grey
Represents purity, simplicity, and new beginnings. A timeless choice that feels both modern and traditional.
