Ella Emhoff is a multidisciplinary artist and creator who founded her company Soft Hands, Inc in 2021 to explore opportunities in fashion, design, creative consulting and hosting events.  A graduate from Parsons School of Design, Ella has used her fine arts degree to explore textiles through knitting, designing knitwear, creating installations for brands and upcycling donated materials.  She’s also created a community based knit club to teach knitting and use the community for in person connection.  “Emhoff’s fierce attachment to the craft and contagious eye for the kooky have made her something of a knitting diplomat” writes Amelia Stone in Cultured Magazine.
