Soothing Stitches: Knits for a Quiet Mind
My new book
Out April 4, 2025.
Inspired by the quiet energy of crystals, Soothing Stitches: Knits for a Quiet Mind contains 12 knitting patterns that encourage you to slow down. The collection, featuring both garments and accessories, explores simple yet beautiful constructions and stitch patterns, keeping your hands busy while your mind finds stillness. Woven among the pages are gentle words that echo the rhythm of knitting — poetic reflections and a touch of mindful meditation.
Pick up your needles, take a deep breath, and cast on.
The book’s 12 patterns encourage you to pause, ground yourself and find moments of calm.
“In today’s hectic world, slowing down is a gift you can’t give yourself enough.” Pauliina Kuunsola

A LITTLE BOOK OF MOON-INSPIRED SHAWLS
My first book
A Little Book of Moon-Inspired Shawls is an expression of gratitude for the moon in knitted form. This booklet includes nine shawl patterns inspired by the phases of the moon. The designs feature different shawl shapes, such as crescent, asymmetric triangle and pi, as well as different textures — there is even a little bit of embroidery!
The booklet is much more than just a collection of knitting patterns. It offers a unique look into the moon, its cyclical nature and the beliefs associated with it. It also gives tips on how to work with the moon and shares insights on how the moon phases can be used as a guide to other things in life, including your knitting. Enjoy your knitting journey through the days of the moon cycle and tap your toes into its mystic shadows and illuminating light!
Book available also in Finnish as Kiehtova kuu ja neulotut huivit.
E-book (a downloadable PDF) also available!
Some of the patterns are available as individual pdf downloads and the rest will be released throughout 2025. See them here.
