Dear Friends,
On Thursday, 10th Nov., I travelled up to Tallinn for the day to visit
the event known as "Mardilaat" which is an annual Handwork & Crafts
Fair. It had been three years since I had visited this event, so I was
wondering if there was anything new this year.
I was able to greet other lacemakers whom I knew from Pärnu, Narva, &
Tallinn as well as a few from Tartu.
The highlight for me was meeting 2 ladies from The Netherlands who have
recently published their first knitting book titled "Warme Handen/Warm
Hands" based on Estonian knitting patterns & techniques.
I was informed that the English translation was done by a young
Australian man who is also a knitter & is one of the models.
I also bought a bobbin lace ornament from a Slovakian lacemaker who was
visiting Tallinn.
I've posted a few photos in my Webshots album.
Enjoy the up coming week,
Pene
