Linda Marveng
I design knitwear that are classic with a stylish twist and a textural feel for strong independent women, who have found their style. I aim for an elegant style, but love seeing knitters giving my designs a more edgy, funky style. My garments can be moulded by you, to fit your style. As a designer I aim to create garments you can wear for work, leisure and parties or special occasions, preferably all in one garment which you can dress down or up as you wish. Challenging knits, is what I am passionate about. I want to share with you the sense of accomplishment as well as joy, the making and finishing of a knitted garment gives. So that you can be proud to wear your handmade knits.
