Estonian Roositud Mitt
September
25- October 6 Come join our group of knitters to explore the north of Italy, Milan, and Venice, good food, excited knitters,
Plus a day trip to Switzerland, a cooking class, and of course a knitting class and project! We’ll learn about the gorgeous Estonian technique of Roosimine, knitting fingerless mitts. (See this page!)
We will begin in Milan, meet a designer, and get oriented. Taking a coach to the beautiful Como Lake area, we’ll enjoy the scenery and meeting with Italians.
Then on to Venice-a magical place, full of piazzas, cathedrals, shops, restaurants, and more.
30-November 7 Beth’s Autumn Vermont Retreat: The Swedish North Halland Red and Black Pullover I spent several weeks in Scandinavia researching 19th-century garments, and this North Halland Pullover was one of the garments I was focused on. I love the details and the motifs used in these garments that were knitted for pay.
