Wool Done

Seventh edition winner

Wool Done is the brainchild of Giulia Boari, a Bolognese graphic designer and a passionate knitter. Giulia knits from the age of 10, making scarves for friends; traveling and participating in festivals and events abroad she learned the most advanced techniques. Her work began as play as she once a week held a knitting school in the Bologna area. That was just the starting point that led her to want to think bigger and create the site wooldone.com, for anyone interested in knitting lessons, accessories and precious and original yarns made of unusual materials such as paper and metal or hand dyed ones. Giulia also collaborates with major Italian brands of yarns, small craft businesses, local dyers and artists, exporting Italian craftsmanship and culture abroad.
