I’m Olena, a knitter who loves exploring new techniques and helping others learn. I started Hill Yarns, a small business that supports village women through knitting. Lately, I’ve begun writing my own patterns, and it brings me so much joy. I’m excited to share my designs and tips with you as I continue this journey in the knitting world.
