Designer Spotlight - Sanni Pauliina

Sanni Pauliina of @sannila_

Sanni has been publishing patterns since 2020, and has created a gorgeous collection of knitwear designs. She loves to create designs that are relatively simple, but still have something extra for interest. 

Sanni’s aim is to transform nature into knitting. She creates rustic knits with little thoughtful details. She loves to explore different fibers and wools, and even wrote her thesis on Finnish landrace sheep breeds. 

Part of Your Story

Part of Your Story is a triangular shawl with various textures and slip-stitch patterns. It was originally the first Sannila Designs shawl knit along. There is a ton of variety in the pattern, so you're sure to stay engaged the whole way through. 

The pattern is written for fingering-weight yarn, and Lankava Sulo has plenty of color options to choose from.   

A Journey Away

A Journey Away is cuff-down sock pattern with a forest themed colorwork and a lovely texture that reaches all the way to the toes. The design has a a textured contrast color French heel. The pattern has two sets of charts, one for screens and a second for printing. 

This pattern is written for Tukuwool Sock. Which is perfect for you, because all my stock of Tukuwool Sock is currently discounted! Grab some before it's gone. 

Kulkuri

Kulkuri is a top-down stranded colorwork sweater with a design of twigs and berries around the yoke. There are also small colorwork accents on the hems and cuffs of the sleeves. The body is straight with optional bust darts, and there are three sleeve lengths for customization. 

Kulkuri is knit with Aran-weight yarn, which means Lankava Lysti is a great option. Affordable, durable, and available in 26 different solid colors. 

Remember Me

Remember Me is a rustic cardigan design that combines moss stitch and simple cables for a cozy result. The pattern has three sleeve lengths, two cable options, and a choice of a narrow button band or a shawl collar. Customize this piece to be just perfect for you.    

Yarn for Remember Me

Remember me is written for fingering-weight yarn, and the new LAINE x Novita 4PLY would be a fabulous choice. 100% British wool in gorgeous, expertly curated colors. 

Lankava Sulo is also a great budget-friendly option with 23 solid colors to choose from.
