DAY2: TOURING DURING THE FESTIVAL
After delicious breakfast, we gathered again for some knitting. Most of the participants had finished the tricky cuff and moved on after the beautiful braided area to the palm part, which is color-worked. After lunch a lorry was waiting for us to take us to some nice places on the island.
Our first stop was a local berry wine maker. After that, we got to meet some nice animals: sheep, cows and a lonely horse. The farmers prepared as delicious lamb meat with veggies, which were all cooked in the ground. I have purchased their yarn before: it’s really wonderful to knit with.
The next stop was a small craft shop, and after that we continued to a farmhouse, where our hostess showed us some beautiful woven skirts and told us some great stories about local life.
After some more knitting, we finished our day with a smoke sauna. Tomorrow you will hear about how our exciting week on the island ends.
I will keep you posted all weekend long. Stay tuned for more fun pictures.
