My mother taught me knitting and other needlework techniques at an early age. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>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<p>Over time, I not only developed different types of Needlebags, but also the idea of my own manufactory.<\/p>\n<p>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<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_section_2 et_pb_section et_section_regular et_block_section\"><div class=\"et_pb_row_2 et_pb_row et_block_row\"><div class=\"et_pb_column_3 et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_block_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_2 et_pb_text et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_block_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><h1>How it all began<\/h1>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-5835b5e3\">\n<p class=\"uagb-desc-text\">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<p class=\"uagb-desc-text\">During his illness, my husband was always very annoyed by the clutter in the box and asked me to finally come up with <strong>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<p class=\"uagb-desc-text\">A tax consultant friend of mine, who also knits, told me to go to a patent attorney immediately.
