Maker's bio

Ahoy Dare was launched in 2021 by founder Liz Linfield, who was determined to design unique, custom-made pieces not available from any other company. Driven by her love for vintage knitting machines and streetwear fashion, she set out on a mission to produce distinctive slow fashion garments that would make wearers stand apart. Using vintage knitting machines combined with modern tech, she creates funky and eccentric knitted patterns found nowhere else. Formerly an in-house IT trainer, Liz now draws on her teaching experience and knitting machine expertise to offer specially tailored workshops for Ahoy Dare patrons.
