DarDarsHandKnits® has grown out of its 2011 roots when the idea to create knits for children was inspired by my muse and grandson, Caden Dar (named Dar after my Dad) for whom many colours of love-infused knits were enjoyed.

 

'Manah would weave her love and laughter into blankets and scarfs to hold her dear grandson in warmth and joy.  Soft, colourful and whimsical, these creations were natural expressions of her love for the young boy. Caden said they felt like 'Manah Hugs'. (quote from a story by Caden's Mom, Rachel)

​

Gradually the knits were created for all ages and 12 years later we continue to source the most ethical and purest yarns, always learning the most loving ways to provide our knits.

 

We forever give gratitude to our muse Caden Dar, to my family for constant support and encouragement, to the wonderful folk who purchase these Knits and feel the love in each stitch, and to all the volunteer models during the first years.
