Hi! I'm Ira (the one on the left)

After a couple of years of knitting, I decided to start this blog to share my passion for knitting with the world. I love creating cozy and beautiful things with my own hands, and I hope to inspire you to do the same!

All I know about knitting, I learned from the internet. With this blog, I want to pay it back and share my knowledge and love to the fiber with you!

I live in Oslo, Norway.

My three biggest passions are knitting, bouldering, and hiking.
