Knitting, Geography, Photography, Self-Care

Knitography is a story-telling and visual arts project, with a specific interest in advancing the history, art and healing nature of knitting.

My aim is:

*to share the stories and history of Norwegian knitting traditions.

*to promote innovative designs based on traditional Nordic techniques and make them accessible for today's modern knitter.

*to mentor the technical skills of knitting, by encouraging hand knitters in their personal knitting journeys.

*to offer collaborative support to knitters around the world, as they develop and incorporate techniques and creativity within their hand knitted pieces.

*to provide an understanding of Norwegian wool, choosing the correct materials and tools to create a successful and pleasing knitted piece.

*to protect, promote, shepherd, grow, produce and distribute the traditional wool of my local breed of sheep, Grå Trønder sau.

*to promote self care through daily refection within the Knitting Bag Book.

*to support others to create the mindset, activities, practices and habits against stress, unhappiness, illness, depression and negative emotion.
