adKnits: hand knit natural fiber goods by adknit on Etsy

Natural Fiber Goods

I learned how to knit when I was a kid, but it was being a broke college student that made me pick up my needles in earnest. Why spend money on expensive gifts, when you can just knit a sweater?

For everyone. In your whole family.

Sophomore year was the Year of the Sweaters, and, tragically, everyone in my family received ugly misshapen garments made from cheap acrylic yarn.

Frustrated with both the materials and patterns I had at hand, I began designing my own patterns and experimenting with different fiber types. I discovered a love of wool and designing that ran deep. In 2009, after several years of knitting mostly for friends and family, I began offering my knits online and transitioned to knitting exclusively with natural fibers.

Everything I create is knitted or crocheted by hand with an emphasis on function, color, and materials I enjoy experimenting with the different textures and design possibilities of combining fiber-working techniques. I’ve been known to embroider, sew, and felt when I can! Over the years, my technique has changed and grown, but I continue to be inspired by the outdoors and the colors of fall to make Natural Fiber Goods.
