The Designer

Miyuki san runs a knitting cafe – Knit Cafe IVY – in the cold Tohoku region of Japan, in Akita Prefecture. She opened the knit cafe in 2011 because she loved knitting with her grandmother when she was a little girl and wanted to recreate that space.

With the motto „Knitting is the way to save the world“, she continues her activities to heal and cheer up people through knitting.
