How a passionate fantasy gamer turned a personal project into something truly special.

CozyRelic: the Plague Doctor wearable hoodie blanket

From a Single Stitch

My name is Andry. I've been obsessed with fantasy computer games and everything in that universe: the lore, the aesthetics, the atmosphere. One evening, I decided to do something a little crazy: I sewed a wearable hoodie blanket inspired by a Plague Doctor for myself. Just for fun.

When I shared it online, something unexpected happened. The response was incredible. Thousands of comments, shares, and messages, all asking the same thing: “Where can I get one?”

I realized this wasn't just a personal passion project anymore. People all over the world wanted to feel that same magic. So I got to work: testing fabrics, refining patterns, testing again, improving, testing again. Months of sweat, late nights, and countless iterations.

Today, CozyRelic stands as an official registered US company (NIK CORE LLC), based in St. Petersburg, FL, while I run it all from Prague, where I live. The first run is stitched, tested, and ready to ship. It's a product we're genuinely proud to bring to the world.
