Knitter since middle school
Anneli is CTO at Dreamknit. She leads the technology behind the design tool: the site you design on, the engine that turns your design choices into a pattern, and the checks that make sure it comes out the same way every time.
Anneli knew Dreamknit as a knitter long before she worked here. She made her first Dreamknit sweater in 2021, back when Ingrid and Marte still entered the design choices by hand. In 2024 she joined the team.
Before that, she took a bachelor's in digital infrastructure and cyber security and a master's in informatics at NTNU, and spent two years building Equinor's developer platform, the tools other developers rely on to ship software safely.
Anneli made her first sweater in arts and crafts class in middle school and hasn't stopped since. Away from the keyboard, she plays clarinet in Musikkforeningen Nidarholm, the Trondheim wind band she has won two European championships with.
What Anneli makes sure of
Smooth from start to finish
Picking yarn, playing with designs, downloading your pattern: it should all feel like a breeze. Anneli sweats the tiny details so you never have to.
Built from your feedback
What we build starts with what knitters tell us they want. Anneli turns those wishes into features that feel like they were always there.
The right yarn, ready to knit
Behind every yarn in our library is information that tells the design tool how it knits up, so your pattern fits the yarn you choose, whether you buy it from us or use your own.
Everything working, every time
Every change is tested and reviewed before it reaches you, and nothing about your pattern changes by accident.
