Kibo Pattern Release
I have released the Kibo pattern in both English and Norwegian in my Ravelry Store. Kibo is made for Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk in their stunning Tinde pelt wool yarn and will soon be available as a yarn kit directly on their website. Kibo was brilliantly photographed by Eivind Røhne in Bøler Church, worn by jazz singer Anette Løvtangen with make-up & hair by Hina Suleman.
Kibo Worn by Verity Bradford
My Kibo design made for Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk looked stunning on Verity Bradford (who is a multidisciplinary circus artist, personal trainer and costume designer), married to Michael’s son Tom. These photos were taken by Michael back in December at the National Museum in Oslo, when they were visiting us. The pattern is the next one I will release at the beginning of June in my Ravelry store. Yarn kits will soon be available to order online directly from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.

Hayami Worn by Verity Bradford
It is wonderful to see my designs on others, so when Michael’s son Tom came to visit with his wife Verity Bradford (who is a multidisciplinary circus artist, personal trainer and costume designer), I asked if she would model the new Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk designs for me. Continue reading
Photoshoot at Bøler Church 2023: Kibo
The next set of pictures I will share from the photoshoot at Bøler Church, back in December, is of Kibo made for Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk. I loved this casual style on jazz singer Anette Løvtangen with make-up & hair by Hina Suleman, brilliantly captured by Eivind Røhne. I decided to style the vest with my wide Japanese trousers – that look more like Culottes – and to have the church organ in the background. Anette is wearing size 2 with 24.5 cm/9.75″ positive ease, but it will be available in sizes 1 to 9, as yarn kits directly from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk and as an individual pattern in English and Norwegian on Ravelry after the test knit set to begin on the 15th of April.Photoshoot at Bøler Church 2023: Chiasa
The next set of photos I will share from the photoshoot in Bøler Church last December is of the dress Chiasa made for Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk in their Tinde pelt wool yarn.I decided to use the church organ in the chapel as the background for Chiasa. Make-up & Hair stylist Hina Suleman suggested to braid jazz singer Anette Løvtangen’s hair. Here are the brilliant pictures that photographer Eivind Røhne took of her.
