I am back from my visit to Sweden and while I am recovering, I just wanted quickly to say hello and let you know two important things:
1. The lake, it is free! It is free. Today was windy day and I had the windows facing the lake open and could listen to the waves breaking. I just so love that sound.
2. There is a fantastic videocast called Fruity Knitting in YouTube. It is quite new, there are at the moment just four episodes, but each one of them is special. Make yourself a cup of coffee or tea, put your feet up and take your knitting, and you are in good company for almost an hour and a half.

(This link takes you to the fourth episode.)
In the fourth episode I appear just quickly, but if you would like to hear what I sound and look, there it is. It was filmed two weeks ago, and already the world is looking so much better, that is the snow is gone, well, almost gone.

Hooray, the ice has lost it's grip. Let the fair summer winds sweep in.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific youtube video. I love the intro music. Looking forward to watching it with a cup of coffee in the morning.
Thank you for sharing that, it was so fun to see you and hear you. I think you are right about not needing more inspiration to knit than being cold. I live where it is only cold for a couple of months and even then it rarely goes below freezing. I have a hard time knowing what to knit for this relatively warm weather. I love to see your surroundings they are so beautiful and even your dog looked cute! Thank you again for the video and I hope to see you do more in the future!
ReplyDeleteSo lovely to hear your voice - just as I imagined it.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lene. I cannot wait to have some free time to watch the podcasts and to hear and see you. I just watched a brief minute of the Episode 4 cast and I am intrigued. Thanks for blogging.
ReplyDeleteHooray for an ice-free lake! Thanks for the link to the youtube video...at work now, so can't really watch (shouldn't be reading blogs either...), but I think I will fix a cup of tea tonight, grab my knitting and watch the episode. Looking forward to it. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteGreat to watch you in your surroundings, making fire and talking about cold and warmth and wool. Really beautiful. You are a charming and lovely person!! (as I already expected).
ReplyDeleteWarmly,
Liesbeth
I;ll check out fruity knitting! THanks
ReplyDeleteAh!!! Lovely, Lene, that was very well done and interesting. Thank you, and the dogs and camera-person also.
ReplyDeleteBack again after watching the podcast: What a wonderful segment with you! I love seeing you, and hearing your voice, in your beautiful surroundings with your faithful dogs. Well done! Fiberjoy (Blogspot isn't wanting to recognize my sign-in tonight)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing this and all your other inspiring posts! I have holidays right now and looking forward to watch the video during these days. With greetings from Switzerland, Daniela
ReplyDeleteGood post
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to see you in person! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a big pleasure to see you and listen to you after all these years following your blog...(and despite all those km between you and me !- I live in eastern Canada, Quebec province-) Thanks a lot for sharing this lovely moment!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the information regarding the podcasts on you tube. They are very informative. I enjoyed seeing you and a glimpse into your world. My grandfather was from Lapland and I am always excited to learn more about the area.
ReplyDeleteHope things are going well for you. We've been spoiled with your timely updates for the past weeks/months. I miss your posts, your projects and you!
