Meet Molla
“Handicraft is as much about self-expression as creation—from the materials we choose to the way we bring them to life with our hands,” says Molla. She believes in making design simple, beautiful, and accessible to everyone
Molla's bold patterns and approachable techniques not only empower makers of all levels to slow down and enjoy the process, but have also helped her build a global community connected by a shared love of crafting—a universal language that brings people together.
Recognized as one of the leading voices in modern crochet, Molla has collaborated with major international yarn companies such as Katia Yarns, Suomen Lanka, Hoooked, Novita, Lankava, and Lamana. For several years, she also worked as a columnist for a Finnish handicraft magazine, sharing her perspective on design and helping transform crochet from a nostalgic pastime into a contemporary design movement.
Her work has taken her to more than twenty countries, where she has hosted workshops, inspired audiences at craft festivals, and connected with thousands of makers. Along the way, she has written eight crochet books, translated into several languages and sold worldwide, further amplifying her mission to keep crochet both inspiring and accessible to all.
Curiosity and a fearless sense of play drive her creativity. What began as a childhood hobby evolved into a profession when she realized that crochet could be so much more than tradition—it could be bold, graphic, and modern. Today, her studio is a space filled with sketchbooks, colors, and yarn, where every new idea grows from the simple joy of making by hand. Through her work, Molla emphasizes the deeper value of craft: a way to express creativity, slow down in a fast-paced world, and connect people across cultures.
