she didn’t expect people would react positively to it — until it became one of her most-watched vlogs and raked in more than 3 million views on YouTube.
“I was delighted to see how positively people reacted to it, and that it’s inspired some commenters to make their own wedding dresses one day (which I definitely think is possible for people with less knitting experience, I would just recommend that they give themselves closer to six months than six weeks!),” she said.
She then became inspired to go on a mission and debunk the idea that knitting is only for elderly people.
“I think the success of the video has really fuelled my own personal mission to debunk the myth that knitting is something that only grannies in rocking chairs do,” she stated.
Lindberg also highlighted that several brands have been making knitted outfits with modernized designs in recent years. Her creation adds to the growing list of fashionable knitted dresses — and one a woman can wear on one of the most important occasions in her life.
She went on to share how the sky’s the limit with knitting, giving people the freedom to create whatever they want based on their preferences.
“It’s wonderful to be able to choose your own materials and produce something that is tailored to your own liking and vision,” she said.
While some people might disagree with her, Lindberg said she’s happy that people have become increasingly interested in slow fashion. In the end, she has this to say: “Knitwear can truly be fashionable.”
