olga is a jumper, worked seamlessly, top-down. The lace pattern of the round yoke is an abstract interpretation of an icicle, and the asymmetry of it adds interest to the yoke.

The yarns involved, held together throughout, create a luscious fabric:
200 (250, 300, 350) gr of Familien Davidsen Agnes
150 (150, 150, 200) gr of Lamana Piura

snowtracks/snespor is a collection inspired by winter and the light and brightness of winter time.
Tracks in the snow create interesting images in the bright, white light, which is reflected back to the viewer. Tracks in the snow is texture in the surfaces of the flat, white snow filled landscapes.
Texture is in all kinds of knitting. Holding the textures of snowtracks in mind these six designs emerged from my needles. Some are more challenging than others, but all contain the reflection from the snow at winter time.
This collection was made in connection with the Christmas exhibition at Hornvarefabrikken, which I was invited to create in 2020.


gitte er en cardigan, strikket i ét stykke oppefra-ned. Bærestykkets hulmønster er en abstrakt fortolkning af en istap og mønstrets asymmetri giver bærestykket et overraskende look.

De brugte garner, som holdes sammen i hele arbejdet, giver et fedt, luksuriøst tekstil:
200 (250, 300, 350) gr Familien Davidsen Agnes
150 (150, 150, 200) gr Lamana Piura

snowtracks/snespor er en kollektion inspireret af vinter, vinterens lys og klarhed. Spor i sne skaber interessante billeder i det klare, hvide lys, som sneen reflekterer tilbage til beskueren. Spor i sne er tekstur i de flade, hvide vinterlandskaber. Teksturer er i alle former for strik. Med tanke på teksturerne i snespor er disse seks designs vokset frem på mine pinde. Nogle er mere udfordrende for den, der strikker, end andre, men alle rummer vinterens snerefleksion.
Kollektionen er blevet til i forbindelse med juleudstillingen hos Hornvarefabrikken, som jeg blev inviteret til at stå for i 2020.
