So cool to see you visited Hillesvåg. This is in my neighborhood! And even if the yarn is quite rustic just know that it will soften up with every use and wash

Hi Tiffany! I am also a very big fan of Hillesvåg. I live in Germany and I am dreaming to visit Norway just to go there and buy like a crazy 🤣. I have the unspun yarn from them and I can only say: I LOVE IT! I'm also like you on a green-gray era🤣. We should just enjoy it. Very beautiful everything you bought and happy that I found you😊
Yes Green suits you! Norway and Iceland are the yarn countries of Europe. For now I am happy with cheap yarn from the supermarket and local yarn shop but I will visit Norway one day for yarn shopping. Greetings from Finland.
You can ask hillesvåg to mix a custom colour, but if you don’t like this you don’t have to buy it and it goes in the discount bin. So it might be that. They are also quite strict with their colours and quality so if there is even a slight mismatch or wrong twist/ breakage, in the discount bin it goes.
You are right, those colors look fabulous on you. If you complete all the projects you mentioned you will have some gorgeous, classic pieces! Amazing haul 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
It was funny to see how crazy you got! But very relatable ;) sorry if I missed it, but what was the color number of the Viking Garn Alpaca Bris? It's beautiful!
It is my dream to go yarn shopping in Norway and go to all the mills! Smita from Your Next Knit in West Vancouver (online store) carries several Hillesvag yarns including the unspun! I made the Petiteknit Ingrid out of the Tinde in a slightly darker green held with KFO mohair in bottle green and it is just stunning.
Wow, sooo envious! Did you go back to your air B&B & spread all of your purchases on the bed & jump into their??? I would have. Love your videos.
I loooove the hillesvag greens

I’m loving the sweater and overalls combo.
Enjoying the acquisitions videos 😊
I'm so jealous, love all the colors! Which sweater are you wearing? Your outfit looks so cute

You are so lovely and wow what crazy beautiful finds! Really enjoyed watching this while knitting :))
"Strikkelykke" is Norwegian for "knitting happiness"
That is actually the most wholesome thing ever

Villsau means wild sheep :) Sau is sheep and lam is lamb
Beautiful! What sweater are you wearing? Thank you

I'm going on a Scandinavia trip in Fall and this video made me even more looking forward to it! :)
The trips to the mills we’re definitely so worth it 😍 I am highly envious and can’t wait to visit them myself one day!
"Kos" means "cosiness"/"cuddles"/"hygge" and I just love your enthusiasm for this yarn. It's so wholesome! "More KOS!!!!"
your outfit is soooo cute!! slay

The Sandnes garn store, was that in Sandnes or in Bergen?
Sandnes!
It was funny to see how crazy you got! But very relatable ;) sorry if I missed it, but what was the color number of the Viking Garn Alpaca Bris? It's beautiful!
Alot of discounts are just to help to soldout old stock. No need to be something wrong with those yarns.
