Wonder Who – Danish Knitwear Designer Gitte Lyng
Whipup.net introduced me to Gitte Lyng, a one-of-a-kind Danish knitwear designer.
Gitte is a great all-over-skilled crafter but her absolutely top talent is to knit – right out of her mind, with no pattern. She knits her way through – from dresses to jackets. As she says: “It’s very simple, I start in one end and ends in the other”.
And with her speed and a hang for thick sticks and thin yarns in kid mohair, silk and cotton – that means she knits at least half a sweater in a night. She combines her freestyle knitting with vintage ribbon and embellishments, and sells her unique pieces online.
At Wonder Who, Gitte has photo galleries of her work organized by color palette. Literally hundreds of images showcase her creations. Clicking any thumbnail will zip you to a larger photo.
Inspiration galore.
