New design

Tidi pants

Tidi Pants is a soft and warm pair of knitted trousers for little ones – perfect for autumn, daycare and cosy naps in the stroller.

The trousers are knitted in stripes, which of course makes us like them even more. Tidi is a Bergen word meaning fun or amusing – a fitting name for a playful little pair of trousers.

There is also a matching pattern for the Tidi Sweater, if you want to knit the full set.

New design! (not available in English yet).

Smau Onesie

The soft, lightweight and striped jumpsuit we wanted to make for the little ones. Roomy and comfortable, and just as good for playing on the floor, tucked into the footmuff or as an extra layer outdoors.

A simple striped jumpsuit that we hope will become an everyday favorite!

This is Luddistrikk

We are two friends – Symra Joner and Maren Aabel – who met during medical school in Bergen - Norway, and bonded over a shared interest: knitting. When we started knitting in 2010, it was mostly Selbu mittens and traditional Norwegian sweaters. After both of us became aunts a few years later, we knitted a lot of baby clothes.

Now, as mothers of young children, we want to design our own knitting patterns based on our experiences as parents, focusing on the types of garments, fits, and details that work best. We aim to create knitwear with a good, roomy fit, often featuring stripes and lace knitting, and garments that are well-suited for playful babies and toddlers.

Luddi comes from the Bergen dialect word for clever, well thought out, pleasant, and fun – we hope you find our knitting patterns to be just that.

Under utvikling

Engen hentesett

Engen hentesett bestĂ„r av en jakke med knyting i siden og i-cordkanter, bukse og kyse. Settet strikkes i en enkel struktur med vrange masker som lus. Vi planlegger etter hvert ogsĂ„ flere plagg i samme serie - da vi har fĂ„tt veldig sansen for strukturen! 

Work in progress

The Smau-series

In Bergen, there are many narrow alleys and passages, a bit like the stripes in the Smau series. The garments can be knitted without a measuring tape – simply by working full stripes.

The balaclava, playsuit and jumpsuit are available now. The cardigan and a thicker playsuit are still in progress.

Work in progress

SmÄpudden Cardigan

We have long been pondering a quick-knit, simple baby garment on slightly larger needles than we normally use. This will be a true go-to baby cardigan, perfect for a last-minute newborn gift.

Frequently asked questions

After payment, you will first receive an email with your payment confirmation. Shortly after, you will receive a second, separate email with a link to download the pattern in PDF format. You can download the PDF up to 10 times.

Note: If you don’t see the email in your inbox, please check your spam or junk folder.

Can I become a test knitter?

Yes, you can! Follow our Instagram account, where we post requests for test knitting when we need it. We prioritize those who have a model in the chosen size to ensure the measurements and fit are correct. Otherwise, you must follow the pattern to the letter and provide feedback if something is incorrect or can be improved. We look forward to hearing from you!

Which new patterns are you working on

We always have many ideas and patterns in development—some further along than others. Right now, we are working on a thick striped sweater (Vidden) and a lightweight, easy-knit sweater, as well as several new pieces in the Raindrop series, including a romper and a bodysuit. We’re also designing a thick striped overall (Ulriken).

Additionally, we aim to create a coming-home set and a onesie with a gauge of 21-22 sts per 10 cm. As for the Christmas dress, it’s such a time-consuming project that it likely won’t be ready until 2026.

Are the patterns available in multiple languages?

All the patterns are available in English, and eventually we also want to offer our patterns in German and French.
