Tour de chambre

at Frilandsmuseet:

So much inspiration.

frilandsmuseet 3

The open air museum is one of my favorite museums close to Copenhagen. Beautiful surrounding, live animal (the geese cracked Viola up) - and they even sell knitting in the tourist shop.

I only brought home this beautiful "nøstepind" (and a lot of inspiration):

winder

Now I just have to figure out how to use it...

Jeg mener at have set et sted, at man kan "svinge" eller "snurre" pinden, minder lidt om når man spinder garn, men at man bruger nøstepinden.... aaaargh, jeg kan ikke forklare det!! Ville være meget lettere hvis jeg kunne vise dig de irl... Prøv at spørge Ruth, hende med værkstedet, hend etror jeg ved noget om det.
