Meet a creative – Hanna Rubin

In cooperation with The Women Creative, we’re launching a series of interviews with inspiring female creatives. This week you’ll introduced to Hanna Rubin, designer and founder of “Electro knit, a brand with a love for yarn and knitting”. Below is an excerpt from the interview. Read the full story here >  

– Why yarn?  Hanna: I think I realised that if you work with knitting and also with yarn it’s almost like sculpting the fabric. So I really like that – I like three-dimensional shapes and I like to exaggerate shapes on the human body. I think that’s why I got into knit to start with. “Knitting is so versatile. It can be chunky, it can be fine, you can apply different materials to it and you can create different textures”. But I always hated to sew when I was younger.  “I want to inspire people and I want it to be fun. I think sometimes fashion can be so serious and that’s why I think it’s fun to just make things that aren’t.”
