Hanne Rimmen

About

Hanne Rimmen is a Danish knitwear designer and author, best known for her work with hønsestrik - the colourful, feminist knitting movement that emerged in Denmark in the 1970s. She designs patterns rooted in Nordic tradition and works from the philosophy 'Knit a Story', the idea that knitting can carry a personal narrative. In October 2025 she published the book HØNSESTRIK with Gyldendal, a 376-page reinterpretation of the tradition featuring a pattern library, colour theory and contemporary designs. Alongside selling patterns through her own website, she teaches workshops and gives talks on knitting and colour.
