Come explore Copenhagen, Denmark, with us for a Knitting and Christmas Markets Tour! Copenhagen is renowned for its exceptional yarn and designers. We will visit yarn stores (Knitting for Olive!), experience the Danish knitwear, and get inspired to create something cozy. December is the perfect time to visit the magical Christmas Markets of Copenhagen, where the city is transformed into a winter wonderland with twinkling lights, festive music, and decorated trees, while sipping mulled wine and shopping for unique gifts for the holidays. We will explore the cultural scene and architecture with a castle visit and enjoy a scenic boat canal ride (don’t worry, it’s heated). We will fully embrace the Danish hygge (the feeling of coziness and contentment). Knitting workshops can accommodate all levels of knitting. Non-knitters are welcome. Hotels, admissions, knitting workshops, and most meals are included. You may just need to bring an empty suitcase for all the goodies. We hope you will come explore with us for an unforgettable hygge adventure!
