In early June I took off and landed in Östersund, Jämtland. A long weekend trip to meet up with loving friends. Since my last trip to Östersund, my friends have moved out of the city and bought a house circa 45 minutes west of the city. A small village next to the Faxe river.
I had a great time. Sunshine, good food, loving company. And some knitting. And teaching knitting to the kids. The mother phoned my a day before and said her 5 year old demanding me to teach her to knit. So I packed some yarn and needles.
When her daddy and I picked her up at the daycare center, the first day, she gave me a huge hug and said: Will you teach me to knit? So, when we came home I cast on and she looked on and I showed her to knit stitches one by one. We continued this over the days and the result? Well, she made som stitches but also lost a few. But she was happy anyway..
But then her older brother (he's 7) also wanted to learn. And he really got the hang of it. So now he is knitting his first scarf. My work is done! :-)
