**Now we are launching a workshop course in beginner knitwear 😎 **
We have been asked several times about where to go if you are an adult and would like to learn how to knit and do not know anyone who can help. Often we have not known what to answer, but now we have found a solution — we simply launch our own course.
Together with several of our skilled craftsmen — and based on our knowledge from teaching young people to knit at high school — we have put together a program that is both educational and fun.
The course spans three evenings in April/May and in addition to learning how to knit, we will also make you smarter about the materials you can work with. What sticks work best for you, what types of yarn are good for scarves, what should I choose if I think everything is scratching, etc. All of these things we will help you become smarter about.
The workshop series is held in collaboration with Slusen Højer, who provides coffee and cake all three times ☕
We would like to teach in smaller teams, so don't wait too long to sign up. *We reserve the right to cancel if there are too few enrollees. *

Masks, Marsh & Mindfulness
Knitting brings people together across the board in both physical and virtual communities, and this is exactly the community we want to create with Masks i Marsken. Masks in the Marsh is an event that will contribute to the narrative of the marshes and the Wadden Sea area. With Masks i Marsken we embrace an ancient craft with trends in needlework and lifestyle.
The festival will offer debates, lectures and workshops for both tanned knitters and novices. In addition, music, good food, inspiration and the opportunity to share the love and enthusiasm for crafts with others. Knit also brought the six women behind Masks in the Marsh together. Together they came up with the idea for a knitting festival, which will bring both experienced and new knitters together in new communities - combined with unique experiences in the marshes.
The Story Behind Masks in the Marsh
Kirsten and Marianne are friends and run businesses together — and Pia and Ellen are friends. Separately, the two pairs of friends went to Crete with the travel concept “Time to Calm” to get a little down in gear and have the opportunity to think new thoughts. Neither of us had thought we would have to think new with anyone other than the person we were travelling with, but Crete wanted us to do it differently.
We found that even though we didn't know each other beforehand, fate wanted our paths -- via acquaintances -- to have crossed each other anyway. It gave the ball up for new conversations, and when we found out that we had knitting and creativity in common, well, then suddenly it wasn't far from idea to action.
Since then, Mette and Tatjana have joined our initiative group — it's so good.
