We present you, Anoka Primal Knit.

My name is Liliana König. I’m from Chile, located at the southern tip of South America. I would like to present you my line Anoka,  a knitting line, designed and created by me.

My work as a designer and knitter emerged from my two biggest loves: ancient cultures, and rock music. That's why, Anoka, consist of two fashion lines that I am able to create from these two different sources of inspiration.
Anoka, means Moon in the native Yaganes tribe language who’s origins come from Tierra del Fuego in Chilean Patagonia. Legend comes from an ancient time when the Kuluánas (Grandmother) from the primitive clans talked about the threads of light that came from the moon’s womb and how they weaved the dreams of life, the chants of silence, and illusions waking up from the emptiness becoming a shape shifting reality, connecting all living creatures in the first sacred knit, a unique web of energy.

This magical vision led me into a creative process of combining different materials from the earth and from cultures located in the south of the world in each piece, reaching a point of fusion between a primitive essence and a fashionable look.

…the moon light threads sparkling from the myths into the shining city…
