Knippie
Knippie informs and inspires women to make the prettiest children’s fashion, accessories, soft toys, maternity gifts, to design the children’s room and keeps the reader informed of the nicest novelties and shopping items. Knippie features clothes for children aged 0-12. Knippie challenges its readers to go and sit at the sewing machine to make the prettiest clothes. Knippie helps them by providing detailed descriptions and patterns and by giving practical advice on all kinds of matters. Knippie stimulates people to make things of textile themselves because it gives a personal touch to children’s clothing, it is environment-friendly and sewing is one of the most pleasant hobbies. We challenge the reader and her (grand) children by means of design competitions, craft pages etc.
