Sunday, 24th of September<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Good night in our AirBnB of Charlotte Back lane close to Commercial street.<\/p>\n

Weather is cloudy, but dry and not too windy. We decided to hike to discover the Shetalnd nature especially the coast and the North Sea. Everywhere in Shetland, we are less than 5km from the sea.<\/p>\n

Well equipped and the picnic in the backpack, we are gone. By foot from Lerwick, we arrive quickly on a coastal path. The wind blows and the air is invigorating. Here is the landscape we see.<\/p>\n

On a beach, we can even see some heads of seals emerging from the sea close to us. They look at us with curiosity.<\/p>\n

We get our fill of great sea air, we meet Shetland sheep for the first time, we get a taste of waves against cliffs and the beauty of the lights, we gather in shtlandic colors which may inspire us for our future knit works.<\/p>\n

And we wear our Bousta beanies for the first time. They protect our ears from the wind which blows all the time here !<\/p>\n

We come back on time to get prepared for the SWW opening ceremony. We arrive wearing our Bousta Beanies. The room, filled up with knitting addicts gave an ovation to the guest speakers of the SWW.<\/p>\n

\"P1460977\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All the speech is done in English, some with quite a strong Shetlandic accent. As a consequence, we don’t understand everything… Yet, the evening is very pleasant anyway.\u00a0Our favourite moment is the fashion show, which highlights the Shetlandic knitwear collection of Gudrun Johnston, the president of this WW edition.<\/p>\n

\"P1460991\"<\/a>To close this evening, we enjoy the music of a very nice local band : Vair.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow, it’s gonna get more serious as we will\u00a0attend our first\u00a0workshops !<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
