Birgitte Skirt by Anna Tanskanen

We are delighted to present the gorgeous and elegant Birgitte Skirt designed by Anna Tanskanen, whom you may know as @anjuknits on Instagram. Anna designed it with Le Petit Lambswool and Le Petit Silk & Mohair held together, and has its matching Birgitte Cardigan 🐚

Anjuknits is the creative world of Anna, a Finnish knitwear designer whose work blends Scandinavian simplicity with warm, modern elegance. Inspired deeply by Danish design, Anna focuses on crafting pieces that highlight high-quality materials, thoughtful fit, and harmonious color palettes. This autumn marks the release of her debut knitting book, Cozy Colors – Nordic Knits from Copenhagen, a collection that reflects her signature style of soft hues, tactile textures, and timeless silhouettes.

'Lately I’ve become very fond of the yarns from Biches & Bûches – I’m already knitting my third project with their wool paired with silk mohair. 🤍 The result is wonderfully light, beautifully drapey, and the shades are just perfect – soft, harmonious, and timeless. Knitting with this yarn combination is pure joy!'
