My September 2026 knitting tour with Green Edventures exceeded expectations on every front! Local guides and knitting designer Ingrid and Bergros were beyond generous in sharing their incredible knowledge about Iceland and knitting. And our Green Edventures tour guide Lori seamlessly guided us through every step of our itinerary with humor and grace. We got to see and do so many things that tourists don’t generally get to do, from visiting local artisans and yarn dyers in their homes to eating a homemade lunch of lamb soup at a local farm, to participating in the annual sheep roundup. We saw Northern Lights; we toured wool mills and goat farms; we soaked up Nordic culture and mythology; we relaxed in geothermal springs, and so much more! The highlights of the trip included the hours we spent with Icelandic knitting designer Bergros working on our shawls of myth and magic, the day we spent at Inga’s farm, and getting to know the incredible women who guided us, to hear their stories, and see Iceland through their eyes. This was a life changing experience; I give this trip my highest recommendation!
