Hello and Welcome Crafter!

My name is Anne-Lise Maigaard, and I’m the creative mind behind Little Green Dragon Knit & Crochet Designs. I live in a charming old house nestled in the woods of Sweden, where I find endless inspiration in the beauty of nature. Sharing this cosy space with my husband and two free range cats, I spend my days immersed in the world of yarn crafts.

My Creative Story

I published my first pattern in 2010, not realising in those early days how that simple step would set me on a path that would completely change my life. At the time, I was working as an administrative assistant in a corporate office. Four years later, after completing a two-year education in weaving and textile design, I took a leap of faith and made the transition to full-time independent designer.

Joy of Creating

My design journey began as a personal challenge to keep things interesting. I longed for designs with a natural flow and intricate details that kept me engaged and inspired. Each project became a space to explore new techniques and push creative boundaries. That joy of discovery is still at the heart of what I do, driving me to create patterns that feel like little adventures—challenging yet rewarding, and always designed to help you find new inspiration and confidence in your craft.

Thank you for visiting my corner of the crafting world—I’m thrilled to share my passion with you!
