I like designs that are simple and clever. I dislike seaming and sewing in a gazillion ends, so I try to design with everything “built in” and knit-as-you-go – hence my slight obsession with the Ziggurat method for seamlessly clever top-down sweaters.

My first two designs – Dido and stina were written up in order to benefit p/hop. They are available in return for a donation to MSF (Médecins sans Frontières).

5 for 4 – if you buy any 5 Åsa Tricosa patterns at the same time you get the least expensive one for free.

If you have questions about my patterns, I suggest that you first have a look at the dedicated pattern threads in the Åsa Tricosa group. Some friendly knitter there usually has a good idea for a solution. You are most welcome to join, but you can also do a drive-by just to drop a question or to brag.
