about knitfest

Originally from Sweden but raised in Germany, I grew up crafting and learned to knit and sew from my dear mother. While knitting has always been a passion, it became a full-blown obsession just before the pandemic, inspiring me to dive deeper into design. Some of you may know me as the pattern designer behind Otto & Odie, or simply as my cute dog Odie's mom — either way, I'm excited to connect with this amazing community and continue growing, learning, and sharing our love for the colorful world of fiber arts.

Pinks and reds are my colors. With an English mum and a Swiss dad I grew up bilingually in Switzerland. My love for knitting runs deep, rooted in the cherished memories of my great-grandmother in England who taught me the craft when I was a little girl. Knitting isn’t just a hobby for me—it’s my passion, a safe place where I can live out my creativity and a way to connect with other people through this beautiful art.
