About

greenermakes is a one-woman show, all created by Marie. She loves knitting, crochet, language, and anything green and growing. (And, apparently, she occasionally talks about herself in the third person.) Get to know her better here if you'd like.

In love with knitting

Marie is a self-taught knitter. She loves experimenting with stitches and techniques. What she's most passionate about is weaving her values into her designs, giving them a special message. Thanks to her publishing background, she crafts knitter-friendly patterns with professional layouts.

Off to the patterns!

In love with language

Marie holds a degree in German, English and Literature Studies. After several years as an editor at a scientific publishing house, she took the plunge into freelancing in 2024. She still loves collaborating with scientists on their book projects, but spends much of her time working with yarn companies, craft publishers, knitting festivals, and indie designers – on patterns and beyond.

Truly connected to nature

"Sustainability" is far more than a buzzword for Marie. She loves gathering knowledge about fairly and resource-efficiently produced yarns, insect-friendly plants and delicious vegetarian or vegan food. Her goal isn't perfection, but sparking change together and sharing inspiration. By the way: the greenermakes office runs on 100% green energy.
