About Knitlidt

Knitlidt is run by Camilla Grady, a 25-year-old teacher student, knitting and coffee enthusiast who designs knitting patterns in her spare time.
As a half-American, half-Danish creative with Faroese roots, Grady is a bit of a cultural cocktail — something that clearly shines through in her designs.

That’s also why she chose the name Knitlidt (“knit a bit”), a playful blend of her two native languages, English and Danish.
Many of Knitlidt’s designs are inspired by traditional Faroese knitting culture — see the collection here.

Words from the woman behind Knitlidt

“My knitting journey is still fairly new — I only started in 2019.
Back then, I was living on the Faroe Islands for about a year and a half, and during that time, I fell in love with the island’s strong knitting culture and the many traditional patterns.

It hasn’t been long since I founded Knitlidt, but I’m deeply passionate about creating knitting patterns and excited to see where this adventure will take me.”

“There’s a kind of freedom in designing your own patterns — you get to be creative, experiment, and be inspired by what others have made before you.
I draw inspiration from both well-known and lesser-known designers, from people I know and people I don’t.
The downside of my intuitive, no-pattern approach is that I often have to redo things — sometimes once, twice, or even five times.
But in the end, something good always comes out of it — something I’m proud to have created.
And to think that someone out there might knit something I’ve designed… that’s an amazing feeling.”
