Welcome to Nordic Heart Designs My site is under construction; please check back soon for more information and for patterns.
My love of knitting, enthusiasm for Nordic design and experience as a graphic designer merge in Nordic Heart Designs. I must have a gene, inherited from my Norwegian grandmother, that makes the geometry of Nordic knitting endlessly exciting to me. But Nordic Heart Designs patterns are American: a knitting melting-pot. I have drawn on a variety of knitting traditions to develop user-friendly patterns that produce beautiful garments. Nordic Heart Designs patterns focus on stranded two-color knitting with occasional forays into other fun or interesting techniques. Charted patterns with clear written instructions will be available as a PDF download or shipped as a laser-printed sheet, in a clear archival pocket. Nordic Heart Designs website will offer a helping hand: commentary, information and support. It is almost impossible for me to follow a pattern without making adjustments to suit my taste. Because I inevitably personalize patterns I expect that other knitters might as well. I encourage you to play with color, try different yarns or move things around a little.
