Barcelona is worth a visit for many reasons: Sonar festival, fantastic food & architecture, nice people and a lovely city, but I have to add one more reason and that is: a very nice knitting shop. The name of the shop says it all: ALL YOU KNIT IS LOVE.
I love that shop: they have very different yarns; I was inspirited to do some more knitting when I left the shop, and the owners were very helpful and nice. I am going back for sure, and if you are in Barcelona I can only recommend that you visit the shop as well
My dear friend and I were in Barcelona because of the Sonar festival. The Sonar festival was fantastic, the food in Barcelona was VERY NICE and the knitting in the Park Güell was fabulous – going back for sure … A bit strange knitting with wool and eating ice cream simultaneously, but I can only recommend it.
I have now bought my second novel where the sales argument for me was that knitting is playing a role in the narrative. Never heard of the author and the setting seems quite common, but knitting is playing a part so I will start to read it shortly.
The first novel where knitting played a part in the narrative that I read was The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs. It is quite entertaining, but hardly the book of the year. Still worth reading if one is into knitting.
Ready to start reading the novel Divas Don’t knit by Gil McNeil shortly.
This sweater is knitted by left over yarn and a wish to combine different techniques. The sweater is knitted in two pieces.
Therefore no matter how little left over yarn a project provide it can in the end contribute to a whole sweater.
I always buy a little extra when starting projects…
