Lana Cabana

Hi, I am Ingrid a vintage enthusiast and knitting designer. I live in Germany with my husband and two cats.

I have been knitting on and off since I was six years old and I have two big passions: Shawls and vintage sweaters. I love the fashion of the 1930ies and 1940ies. I have been making my own vintage sweaters for more than ten years now and I would like to bring to you well worked out, well fitting multisize patterns for sweaters with authentic vintage appeal.
