The origins of OGE Knitwear Designs

'Whispers of Love'

I am working on a special edition that showcases the origins of OGE (pronounced ohgee).

OGE is named after my 3 beautiful grandchildren Oliver, Grace & Elise. With the help of my daughters, I thought it might be special to release a series of patterns relating to each grandchild. Each package will consist of a full outfit & a blanket. The first of the collection was named after ‘O’ for Oliver, or as we love to call him ‘Our Ollie’.

This set was designed for my firstborn grandchild Grace. When my daughter was pregnant with Grace, she had a lot of visits from dragon flies which were included into the nursery decorations. Grace grew up with a special connection to dragonflies and even has a delicate tattoo of one now she’s older! My daughter, who has recently started designing with me, is the creator of this design.
