Made by my grandmother
I just read on Helene Magnussens blog about her grandmother Olga, who was a great knitter. Helene Magnussen is an Islandic knitter and designer living in Luxembourg. Her post inspired me to show you some of my grandmother's work.
My grandmother was a clever crafter, she knitted and sewed, and after she retired, took on tapestry weaving. I like to think I have inherited something from her. These are hanging in our mountain cottage.
This represents Odin riding his eight-legged horse Sleipner, read more about that on Wikipedia.

It's really beautiful
Så flotte.
Det er morsomt å ha slike gamle håndarbeider. Du har helt sikkert arvet et talent fra henne.
Wow! Fantastic stuff :)
Thank you! I might be showing you more stuff later.
Gracias!
Tusen takk!
A talented grand-mother you had. You´ve certainly inherited from her :-)
Beautiful wall hanging!
So beautiful. I love Helene Magnusson too, I didn't know she had a blog, thanks!
