Fascinated by the far north, the landscape, the wildlife and the people with their traditions, I started learning some traditional Nordic handicraft techniques a few years ago. I got enthralled with knitting Nordic patterns and I prefer to work with wool from native Nordic sheep breeds or wool from Icelandic sheep, if possible in organic quality and/or plant-dyed. In the meantime I have also started to design my own patterns. Knitting is one of my hobbies – not my profession. My home are the Swiss Alps.
