Designer Diana Svensk started knitting in 2004 at 16-years-old. One year later, she started her own brand of hats while selling to friends and family. Lots of inspiration, work and learning came with the following years. In time, Svensk's flirty eco-wool hats started to appear in retailers across Sweden. The first collection of knitted hats called SVENSK came to stores in fall 2008.
From those very first hats designed and worn, SVENSK has created a unique style, and the happy spirit from its beginnings remains the same. The collection of hats, mittens, scarves, socks and cardigans are fun models and designs, with the SVENSK signature contrast of delicate fabrics, silks and velvets, with high quality eco-wool.
