Everyone knows and loves them – Melanie Berg's knitting designs.
My designs are knitted thousands of times on Ravelry.
We are thrilled to count Melanie among our authors! Working with her is such an inspiration! Melanie's books are modern classics and a must-have for any knitting book collection.
For our fall retreat, we’ve invited one of the most popular and talented designers from our community: Melanie Berg.
We’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Melanie Berg, aka Mairlynd, whose beautifully crafted shawl and accessory designs bring out the best in our yarns—she’s truly one of our favorite designers, and we love seeing how she transforms our yarns into something extraordinary.
Her designs, her professionalism, her cancer advocacy… Melanie gets my highest praise, she’s a total badass, and I’m so lucky to have her in my life.

Fast and easy ordering. The yarn is high quality, and the colors match the website perfectly. Melanie’s personal touch, including her kind advice and a note in the package, made the experience special. Highly recommended!
This is the most wonderful pattern. The colours arrived and are exactly as shown. They are warm, wooly and fabulous. I wound my first skein only and left the rest. So eager was I to start this. Melanie's patterns are so well written and easy to follow. Get this kit now whilst these beautiful colours remain in stock. Can't wait to finish and wrap around me for my Christmas outings. I know it will look as good as the illustration.. thank you Melanie for great pattern, easy instructions and THE most beautiful coloured yarn. Knits like a dream and three is even a few map in the kit to help you keep track.
Kuschelig weich und wunderschön zu Stricken
Wunderschöne Farben und ein Traum von Wolle
Schnelle Bearbeitung meiner Bestellung und sorgfältige Verpackung der zarten Knäuel
Sehr gute ausführliche und verständliche Anleitung
Das Tuch sieht mega aus - ich freue mich auf das Projekt
super gut erklärt - einfach losstricken - gehört zu meinen Lieblingsanleitungen
Nicht nur, daß ich schon oft Cheeky Merino Joy verstrickt habe (die ihrem Namen alle Ehre macht, denn sie bereitet wirklich Joy beim Verstricken und auch hinterher beim Tragen und Waschen) so sind Melanie Bergs Modelle einfach traumhaft und viel leichter zu bewerkstelligen als sie aussehen. Das Sahnehäubchen ist, daß die Designerin wirklich so liebenswert war, mir bei einer Anfrage hilfreich zur Seite zu stehen. Danke.
Sehr sehr schön
Top 👍
Alles super!!👍
Die weichste Wolle, die ich jemals verarbeitet habe, superschön und angenehm.
I just ordered three of your patterns. I love your creativity and use of colors.
Toll zu stricken, bringt viel Freude

Melanie Berg
For me, knitting is not just creativity, but also those little moments full of joy and energy – the moments when the world stands still and everything revolves around yarn, needles, and ideas.
It’s from this passion that I design my pieces: clear, modern, and wearable, perfect for every day and every moment.
Why Mairlynd?
In 2012, I left my job as an IT specialist to pursue my passion as a freelance knitting designer. For me, knitting is creativity, joy, and little moments of happiness – and that’s exactly what I try to bring into my designs.
I love combining colors, shapes, and ideas to create timeless, modern, and wearable projects.
My work has been featured in magazines around the world – from the USA to Europe and Asia – and my knitting books are read internationally and loved by many knitters.
Right now at Mairlynd
Fresh inspiration, straight from my knitting day to yours.
