The results are thick and dense, not very elastic and more or less wind- and water-proof, so they would be useful in Iceland! There's a group on Ravelry - you'll find it among the groups I've joined.<br /><br />Terry, the house was indeed gorgeous - as was the garden and the surrounding landscape.

I am sure it will be so much fun!<br />And one question: what is twined knitting?<br />Thank you so much for your comments on the kids pictures... I am still so happy about that!RodPrjónarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15078316065512574287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1502812466187723045.post-3466177555557473822009-05-07T21:47:00.000+02:002009-05-07T21:47:00.000+02:00Really?

I had only passed through Finspång before, so I had missed all the lovely villages, valleys etc off the road. I'm even more glad I've been there now that I know about your connections!Asplundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03632889633679589209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1502812466187723045.post-36862979577633529102009-05-07T20:40:00.000+02:002009-05-07T20:40:00.000+02:00Now I live at the wrong place again.
