100% lutefisk free!

Looky what Theresa made! An ad for my class in Oslo [which I now know is pronounced something like "osh-le"].



I've already heard from a few blog readers that they're coming. [How cool is that?] We're getting SO EXCITED! Theresa has also offered to translate in class for anyone who needs it. I think I'm going to strap Theresa to my leg and keep her with me always.

Eee!

It's going to wonderful for me to be able to sit in a knitting class in Scandinavia and not need any translation! Yay!!

I'll chime in on that: Yay!

(I love the thought of Theresa strapped to your leg)

Hey there! I'm the gal you met during dinner before the Yarn Harlot's book launch earlier this year -- the one knitting the doll that went to Norway to be in an art show... (one of these days I'll post pics)

Glad to hear you're heading over, it's a gorgeous country with lovely people! Oh, and Oslo? Great walkable city with lots to do (in between all that knitting of course!).

I just love the word "Strikkefestivalen"! I haven't a clue exactly what it really means, but it sure looks like "Knitting Party" to me!!!

Aw, I'm so jealous I can't be there! Not least because my Norwegian could use a polish (I think the only words I remember, though, are the knitting words, so I did pretty well with the ad there). I'll be sure to tell my one friend in Oslo who I'm still in touch with to go and see you...

My eyes jumped straight to that card, and I was wondering what was wrong with me that I couldn't read all the words. Wow, sometimes my ignorance amazes me. Other times, I'm really smart, really I am.

Hooray! I just signed up for the Saturday knitting class. Looking very much forward to seeing Theresa strapped to the teacher's leg (and some knitting, too)!

Welcome to Norway, Amy!
We all look forward to the visit.
Make sure to ask around for the knitting museum, (I`m not sure if the exibit is still on though)

I'm half Danish and only know about two dozen words, so I'll let you in on a little secret. The vast majority of Scandinavians are reasonably fluent in English. You'll be fine.
