About Linka Neumann

Linka Neumann grew up in Oslo in a family who loved to travel; outdoor activities were a big part of her childhood. Linka also loved to draw and paint. Knitting and needlework had been a big part of her family life, and Linka was always the one who didn't knit. This changed after she worked in a nursing home where both staff and patients knitted. She made her first sweater, and thus began a new chapter in life.

Linka eventually began to design her own garments, and her first sweater, the Wilderness Sweater, is still one of her most popular. She has published three books her first, published in 2019, was on the bestseller list for over 30 weeks and has been translated into several languages.

In 2020, Linka and her husband opened the online store, linkaneumann.com. Linka currently has over 143,000 followers on Instagram: @linka.neumann

She and her husband live in the village of Åsgreina, Norway, with their two dogs.
