Author: Liyema Mantshongo
The Queen of Sweet Melanin, Zikho Katherine Nkili is doing hand made crotchet crop tops and in all that embraces her heritage as a Xhosa dime.
The North West University student has by all odds showed full pride in her black skin and is an advocate for African feminism. Earlier this year, she was featured on Magnifica Model Studio photoshoot and that's one of her greatest moments as a model. She usually paints and wear herself up like a doll as a hobby and you can witness such on her social media pictures. She recently announced that she is doing hand made crotchet crop tops and it will include all sizes. She said her idea of doing crotchet crop tops came up from her boredom of watching series everyday and the only sense of urgency she would get is of her varsity work. She couldn't crotch but her grandmother would and she asked for assistance in learning. Luckily, although her granny knew Zikho is lazy when she noticed that she's serious she gave her a chance to learn and supported her on this idea of doing crotchet crop tops. Zikho's inspiration behind her model is to accommodate for culture and needs for every women, plus size girls and girls who have D+ cups which sets her apart from other brands.

She purely believes in a family being the support system because her family have shown her nothing but absolute support. "So now I see that you can do anything that you put your mind into, challenge yourself and never say I can't but I will." she said. Queenstown surely couldn't ask for more on an inspiration for young girls.
