A dream come true

Teaching knitting at HV has been my secret dream for a few years, but there's no point in keeping it a secret anymore: I will be teaching twined knitting here seven weekends starting in September! Actually, I got the news in early April, but have been too excited to dare believe it's really going to happen, let alone write a post. I enjoy teaching all sorts of techniques, but nothing quite like twined knitting, so it's difficult to express what an honour and a privilege this is. My standard twined workshop for beginners is some 7 hours long - and now there are no less than 80 delightful hours to fill in all, so I'm happily planning and swatching.

In a comment on my previous post Carolina asked whether I was dyeing something in the pot. No, just washing the shawl before blocking it. (Dyeing wool would be fun, but I'd worry about ruining the wool.) Here's what the shawl looks like when it's worn; Karin (who owns Litet nystan) was kind enough to be my model.

Landing or taking off?
