Founder and Creative Director 

Tiffany Banks

Welcome to the enchanting world of Nina Faye where creativity and whimsy intertwine to create a truly magical experience. As the proud founder and creative director of Nina Faye, my ultimate goal is to transport you to a realm filled with wonder, where imagination knows no bounds.
With a rich background in knitting for over two decades, I draw inspiration from the time-honored beauty of traditional crafts, the ever-evolving world of fashion, and the bohemian spirit of my Great Great Grandmother. It is within this fusion that the essence of Nina Faye Knits was born.

Our Story

Nina Faye is not just any women’s knitwear brand; it is a cottage industry brand with a vision. Founded in the heart of Baltimore, MD, we seek to reimagine traditional knits with a modern twist. The result? A bohemian, modern, and eclectic aesthetic that truly stands out.

The idea behind Nina Faye took five years to fully develop, shaped by an intense love for the process of designing, grading, and knitting. By keeping the tradition of fiber crafts alive and infusing it with high fashion, Nina Faye ensures that every item we offer is a work of art.

The name itself holds significant meaning, as it pays homage to our Founder’s Great Great Grandmother, Nina Faye Arter, a courageous young woman who fearlessly embarked on a journey to a new place in pursuit of her dreams. This bold and adventurous spirit of hers weaves through the fabric of our brand, driving us to empower individuals to embrace and embody their truest and most authentic selves.


Here at Nina Faye we aim to share the joy and fulfillment that only a handmade item can bring into someone's life. In order to foster a sense of community and to encourage the art of crafting, we seek to be a refuge in the heart of Baltimore, MD, from the mundane life by providing workshops, meetups, and even studio visits. Welcoming fellow crafters and enthusiasts to come together and celebrate the love of creating is our mission. In doing so, Nina Faye not only showcases its dedication to the craft but also its commitment to building connections that last a lifetime.

So, whether you are seeking to embark on a knitting journey that transcends the ordinary, or simply looking to infuse a touch of flair into your everyday life Nina Faye Arter is equipped to support you. Step into our wondrous world and let your imagination blossom with us.
