Postcards from the LGBTQ+ Knitting Tour 2026

When are too many pictures too many pictures?

When you run your first LGBTQ+ knitting tour in Iceland!

Make sure not too miss the little video at the end of this VERY long carousel of pictures: it makes me smile each time I watch and listen to it!

Cashmere kids and lambs cuddles

Also shoe-lace nagging!

First hike and color inspiration. Or just inspiration.

  Getting those needles moving!

Even at the dinner table!

Enjoying life

Getting to know the old ways of life

More sheep and more lambs to cuddle

More knitting and more sweaters

Twinning the Crowberry sweater

Trying on a new design (and testing it!) Pattern is now released: Lopi Magic

Rainbowing

More hikes

 

Almost finished my Icelandic Ovis sweater (vest version because… sleeve island!)

Our proud little lopi sweaters!

More lopi yarn

A first tattoo inspired by the Icelandic moss!

Farewell drink at 22

“Thank you soooo much Helene! It was a trip of a lifetime. You did an amazing job creating a warm, and accepting environment. I will never forget the week we had!
I will miss all of the rainbows and trans flags. One of the first places that I have felt truly safe, accepted and respected rather than simply tolerated (or worse).”

“Thank you for the wonderful tour, it really was life-changing!”

“This was one of the best weeks of my life and I will be treasuring it forever. huge thank you to @helenemagnusson and everyone i got to share this with 🫶”

“It was a perfect trip! You went above and beyond every day.”

 

 

Thanks to you! I didn´t expect to get so emotional in this tour and I can´t wait to host more beautiful souls in the next LGBTQ+ knitting tour in June 2028!
