Boulder, CO – Dec 10, 2009 – Rhonda Swenson’s love affair with sweaters started when her grandmother taught her to knit potholders at age 9. In college, she knitted sweaters for her boyfriends; proof that sweaters are love! She then turned her reputation as “the Sweater Girl†into a 15-year career as a designer and business owner with three successful outdoor related knitwear brands. (Chompas, EIR Sports & Neve).
Now, as founder and president of “With a Twist†knitwear & accessories, Rhonda and her team of exceptional designers has created a line of sexy, flirty, fun sweaters, dresses and jackets for the fashion and resort industries.
“Knit + Wear = Twist†is a new formula for Swenson and her promise to always make sweaters with a twist so they look, feel and dress up better than any sweater you’ve worn before. These luxurious, ultra fine merino wool and cotton merino blends are sure to become your instant favorite.
Rhonda said, “Active women will love the feminine, flattering styling of our sweaters. They’re sensual and practical with funky details and flirty patterns.
It’s sweaters with a twist. Original designs, incredible yarns, every detail from scratch and all produced by highly skilled group of knitters whose time honored tradition goes back generations. Rhonda believes they leave a little piece of their heart and soul in every sweater. Thus said, she takes her personal commitment to “fair trade†very seriously by using natural fiber yarns from sources that respect their animals, employees and Mother Earth. She regularly visits and works in the factories where their lines are produced.
