Janita Van Dyk

I am a designer based in Toronto, Canada. While I have been a long-time knitter, I only recently began crocheting.

Due to the flexibility and structure of crochet, I’ve found that it is uniquely suited to creating a range of accessories with one-of-a-kind details and thoughtful techniques. While I see knitting as textile creation, I’m drawn to crochet for its sculptural qualities.

My debut design, released March 2023, is the Strawberry Fields Phone Bag, inspired by the funky, irreverent, and cute spirit of GenZ and my love of all things food.
