The wool has a little story. The very same evening I met another friend who told me that it was actually her yarn. She had bought it on a trip to the Faroe Islands 25 years ago to make a genuine Faroese sweater for her husband.
However, the yarn had been hibernating under her bed until she decided to give it away for charity.
I knitted the French Market Bag straight away, and felt it in my washing machine. The market bag was huge and nearly killed it. But it is gorgeous.
Thank you so much for sharing. It's a lovely finish and your video makes it clear how it's made.

Thanks for sharing - it's very clear, even in Danish! And the market bag is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your video. I have seen this edging on a shawl recently and could not figure out how to do it. My daughter sat on my lap and counted with you the whole time. I also love the story of your yarn - thank for sharing it. Serendipity is a lovely thing.
ReplyDeleteI love this edge, thanks!
