Last week I had to spend 5 days in Stockholm. Before I left home I checked out some shops nearby to visit during the evening, so I would have something to do and came across: Marias knittingshop
I saw on her website that she gave private knittingclasses as well, so I called her and booked one together with Weronica who came over to spend an evening with me in Stockholm. I only knew how to knit very basic stuff so she learned us how to do lace knitting. She was very nice and did a great job on making some samples for us and giving us additional information for next projects!. I knit the american way. People here in Sweden knit differently so I had to adjust a bit to see how I had to do it, but Maria was a great help. This is the test piece we made there:
This is what I took home with me:
At home I started working with the pink yarn, but it was so thin I couldn't really get a pattern in it:
So I started again with the red yarn I got from Cathi, this is what it looks like now, it is going to be a scarf...so I have some knitting left to do!...:-)))
So if you are ever in Stockholm, visit Maria!
