Isabell Kraemer
When it comes to modern knitwear design, there is no getting around Isabell Kraemer. German knitwear designer Isabell Kraemer is known for her unique creations in the world of contemporary knitwear design. Combining traditional knitting techniques with modern appeal, Isabell has established a reputation for her timeless, casual pieces, all with a little twist. Her designs are characterized by a harmonious blend of comfort and style. Whether it's cozy sweaters, casual shawls, stylish hats or even socks, Isabell's creations reflect a deep understanding of craftsmanship and design.
Her pattern instructions are much loved for their clarity and are appreciated by both beginners and advanced knitters all over the world. Isabell is a trained dressmaker who became a knitwear designer quite by accident. As people kept asking her how she made her knitted items, she started posting notes about how she made them on her blog. When she discovered Ravelry, she started publishing more and more designs. It didn't take long for her fresh, wearable and modern patterns to gain a large and dedicated following. She actively engages with the knitting community through workshops and social media platforms, sharing her knowledge and inspiring knitters to explore the limitless possibilities of knitwear.
