Knitting Weekend
October 31 – November 2, we warmly welcome you to a cozy weekend in Myrkdalen. Enjoy a relaxing time indoors, knitting in great company with fellow knitting enthusiasts!
Knitting Weekend is back
As the chill of November creeps in, there’s nothing better than retreating into the cozy embrace of the mountains – with yarn, needles, and good company. Join us for the 9th annual Knitting Weekend at Myrkdalen Hotel – a weekend full of inspiration, laughter, learning, and creative comfort.
This Year’s Theme: Sustainability
This year, we focus on reuse, redesign, and making the most of leftover yarn. Kari Traa will join us to share her thoughts on how small steps and creative solutions can make a big difference – even in the world of knitting.
What’s Included with the Festival Pass
- Full access to the entire weekend program from Friday to Sunday
(including workshops, talks, the exhibitor market, fashion show, and more) - Dinner on Friday and Saturday
- Coffee and traditional Norwegian “lapper” pancakes on Saturday
- Saturday evening concert with Frida Amundsen
Highlights
- Fashion Show with Prize Draw
A beloved tradition! Join the lively fashion show hosted by the ever-charming emcee Astrid Norekvål Tillung. You might even win a prize! - Concert with Frida Amundsen
Saturday evening wraps up with beautiful music and a cozy atmosphere, brought to you by singer Frida Amundsen – a perfect end to a creative day. - Knitting Swap Market
Staying for the full weekend? Bring a hand-knitted garment you no longer use and sell it at our second-hand rack.
Items must be clean, in good condition, and hand-knitted.
Bring along your current project – or get inspired to start something new. This weekend is all about sharing ideas, learning from each other, making new knitting friends – and perhaps revealing a few secret tricks of the trade.
