Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
This shawl has been in my mind for a long time. It is inspired by the symmetry of a mandala and a great opportunity to play with colours. I suggest going with at least 4 different colours to showcase the stripes!
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Enjoying the simplicity of basic brioche and garter stitch, this is a perfect project to show off some beautiful yarns mixed together. You could make your shawl as big or small as you want by working fewer/more repeats of the pattern.

I knew when I created the Tollow Cowl that I wanted a matching hat and I just love the combination of the two pieces together. This design features a folded brim in stockinette, that you can make shorter or longer depending on preference. This makes a thick and warm hat, keeping you comfortable during the cold winter days. The pattern can also ...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
My designs are a lot about symmetry and shape, and this is no exception. ’Årsringar’ is the Swedish word for annual growth rings and an amazing organic shape that gave inspiration to this design. It is a simple brioche and garter stitch shawl, where each section of brioche grows bigger with the increasing size of the shawl. The result gives a b...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
I love colour, and working with mini-skeins is therefore so much fun! In this pattern we only use the basic stitches of brioche so that any newcomer to this fantastic technique can try it out. Once done, you can skip blocking to have a thick scarf, or block it stretched like mine for a beautiful textured, multi-coloured wrap!
Knitting: Cowl
When you get married, you create a new family. Tollow is the name I took when marrying my husband, and it now also is the surname of our son. I am so proud of our family. I am also enormously proud of this cowl pattern – therefore this cowl now bears our name. It is a brioche cowl, with a folded stockinette stitch hem at the bottom as well as t...
Knitting: Cowl
I love to wear the Highway Hat, so I had to make a matching cowl to help me resist the cold Swedish weather. This cowl is made in one piece, sewing both sides of the folded hem after its blocked. The hem makes the cowl match your Highway Hat perfectly, while keeping you warm and cosy.
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
I always try to challenge myself using new techniques. This brioche beanie has a folded brim, and a simple stripe of double knitting beginning at the base of the hat that swerves into the crown like a highway, giving it that little extra. It is a perfect project for anyone new to brioche knitting as it also includes a simple guide to brioche kn...
Knitting: Cowl
Dahlia cowl is my first cowl-design, that matches your two-colour Dahlia hat. This amazing stitch is quite simple, but makes the most beautiful texture, and the colour variations are limitless. As there are two ribbing sections of different length, you can choose what side to have up. Use the long one to really match your hat and for those cold...
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
You know I love symmetric designs, and this is no exception. Dahlia hat pattern showcases a shorter beanie to make the crown look its best. The pattern includes both, a single-colour version which is a lot easier. And the two-colour version makes the intricate design just pop. I hope you like them!
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
I just can’t get enough of the twisted hearts, and I hope you can’t too! Because of this - here is a hat you can wear just on its own or use to compliment your Twisted Hearts Shawl.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
After my first shawl, I got a taste for shawl knitting and just had to make another one! This shawl is a triangular shawl in full brioche, with an edging that came out just perfect! There are a few tricky stitches, but I hope you will learn something new and that you will enjoy knitting it!
Crochet: Softies - Other
I work as a urology surgeon, so when my collegue fell pregnant, I just had to make her a stroller toy for the baby with something in our field of medicine. The result was this cute amigurumi kidney, and now all other collegues wish they where expecting again
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
I love a challenge. This is my first ever shawl pattern (and third shawl ever knitted), and boy was it a challenge! I had to read and study the basics as well as knitting several types of shapes, before I got stuck with this one. It is a crescent shaped shawl, perfect to wrap around your neck on chilly days. It has my signature hearts, as well ...

I might be a bit addicted to the brioche and garter stitch combination right now, but it makes so many possibilities that my imagination goes wild!
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
After the Brioche Heart Hat - I had to make another hat with brioche and garter stitch combination as well as the brioche hearts. Here is the result, and I hope you like it! With the sizes below, you can increase or decrease as many stitches as you like for a fitted hat. Happy knitting!
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
After playing around with increases and decreases I noted that you could make brioche hearts, and I fell immediately in love with it! I made 5 different hats, and still I was not pleased with the result. Finally, I mixed the brioche stitch with garter stitch and came up with this design! I am so pleased that I did, because I love the result, an...
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
I love trying to create interesting brioche patterns! Here I have tried to create a flower base that is repeated upside down towards the top. The base can be done with a single or 2-color brioche, creating an interesting ribbing section.
Crochet: Potholder
I had long been looking for a simpler, yet again useful and thick pot holder pattern. After some searching in both Ravelry and Google I found and made pot holders like these. A friend later asked me for the pattern, but I couldn’t find it again. To help her I wrote this down, and now I ‘m sharing it with you.
