At Bodolina, everything revolves around knitting<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

I, Astrid, have had a passion for knitting since I was a child. My mother taught me knitting and other needlework techniques at an early age. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In 2013, I went through a difficult time when my husband fell seriously ill. To deal with the emotional stress, I rediscovered knitting as a kind of therapeutic outlet. <\/p>\n

Over time, I not only developed different types of needle bags, but also the idea of my own manufactory.<\/p>\n

What started out as a personal sanctuary has grown into a creative oasis where I can let off steam as much as I like.<\/p>\n

How it all began<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Finding the right knitting needle in the box we all know can be a real challenge, especially if it bothers someone. I know this problem only too well. <\/p>\n

During his illness, my husband was always very annoyed by the clutter in the box and asked me to finally come up with SOMETHING <\/strong>. And I came up with something. That’s how my first Needlebag was born. At that time I was still working independently as an office service. <\/p>\n

A tax consultant friend of mine, who also knits, told me to go to a patent attorney immediately. I did so immediately and had the design protected. <\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The circular knitting needle bag is a protected design, which is registered at the German Patent Office with the
German design application 40 2015 000 207.9.<\/strong><\/p>\n
