Journey through Finland’s knitted heritage with fellow yarn lovers on this brand new Stitchtopia tour which explores the capital, Helsinki, the sunniest city Vaasa and Korsnas, home of the Korsnas sweater.
This tour will take us on a journey from Finland’s capital, Helsinki, north to Vaasa and Korsnas, home of the Korsnas sweater. On route we’ll meet and have workshops with local craft experts and enjoy three half day workshops with our expert.

You will be able to choose whether you knit or crochet the project, or perhaps you may try to combine both techniques with the guidance of our expert. You will need to be of intermediate to advanced level and should know how to read a pattern.
