Tuulia Salmela

I’m a Finnish knitter, moved back from the States to Finland in August 2009. I learned to knit from my Granny when I was about 9 or 10 years old and have been knitting ever since. The last two years have been more active, and nowadays I have a decent-sized of yarn and countless sweaters in my knitting room. I design most of my garments myself, and wear them whenever possible. Luckily I live in Finland, and I wear my handknits constantly!

Knitting is my no. 1 passion, but you’ll see me occasionally cross-stitching and crocheting, too.

Some of my designs are only available in Finnish. If you have any questions or comments about my designs, please do not hesitate to send me a message! Please note: Update info, errata, info about KALs etc. is also available in Ravelry Group Fans of KnitLob’s Lair - Louhittaren Luolan Fanit. The group is in both English and Finnish.

Some patterns contain errata information and links to errata pages. The newest, corrected version is always available in ravelry, but I want to provide the errata also for those who might still have the older version on their computers.
