The Fries Museum has an exposition about Knitting. And they asked for knitters to come and knit and, if possible, learn (young) visitors how to knit. Great fun!
A week later I went to Zwolle, to visit the Brei-en Haakdag. Two days with friends, wool, knitting and crochet. I was asked to coordinate a children's corner, where children could learn how to knit or crochet. Quite some young girls came to learn. Great fun too! (I am the woman wearing the salmon coloured shirt)
Even a man wanted to learn how to knit. Do you recognize my Sari Marais?
In between I finished my Dig Deep. A shawl, designed by Stephen West.
And a quick knit, two Bunchoten mitaines. Written from an old pattern, I did this testknit for Evelien Verkerk.

Meid wat ben je weer verschrikkelijk druk geweest! Maar wel met hele leuke dingen. :)
Je Sari Marais staat je schitterend en van de Big Deep denk ik dat je hem heel vaak zult gaan dragen. Helemaal nu het kouder wordt, net als die mitaines. :)
You are becoming very famous - as a teacher and a maker of beautiful shawls and mittens (or fingerless mittens) wow. I can say I knew her before she was famous. And wonderful that you have the patience to teach young people. Good for you! I am having photo troubles, so am very behind in my blog writing. Sorry.

Wat leuk om je verhaal te lezen. Ik wist niet dat jij ook een blogger was :-). Ik heb me maar meten aangemeld als volger. Het is altijd leuk om wat meer te lezen dan alleen de korte opmerkingen en foto's op fb te zien!
Groetjes, Nelleke
