Master Knitter







Thank you Ulrika for putting me in touch with Kristina Ericksson, a master knitter who lives in Medelpad, province from which my Mormor came from. It was great to meet her and see what she has created.


Here are some of the things she brought for me to see. Aren't these wonderful !









Thanks Kristina for taking the time to meet with me !


I'm jumping around here but we met these sisters, the oldest in her 90's (the spinner), near Järvsö. They were so charming. I had never seen flax spun before. She even let me take a "spin" at it !

Many more pictures to come ! Next Märta-Stina......
