First Finnish Knitting Project!




I made this poncho for Sophia out of Pompon Print by Rico design. I bought the yarn at Kasityo-Elisa on Brahenkatu in Turku. www.kasityoelisa.fi The tricky bit was binding off. I won't tell you how I bound it off because I am sure it was the wrong way. (It involved needle and thread from a small mending kit). My needles were addi circulars 60cm/3,0mm

  1. Hi, I wanted to know what your favorite yarn stores are in Turku? I'm coming there this week and wanted to go to a few. I didn't know the one store was a laundromat! So funny. My husband is teaching on a Fulbright in Tampere and I have 1 daughter and we are also enjoying our time in Finland.
