The Elegant Ewe
Welcome to our website!
Join us at Elegant Ewe Travel's Coastal Maine Knitting Retreat 2025. The Retreat will be held again in Freeport, Maine at the lovely Harraseeket Inn - February 27 - March 2, 2025.
This year's focus is the ever popular Icelandic Lopapeysa, or Lopi sweater. Students will learn the skills unique to the knitting of this iconic sweater including steeking with machine stitching and crochet as well as knit bands while knitting a small teddy bear sized version, so that once you get home you can knit and possibly design your own! Students will learn the history of textiles in Iceland as well as the unique characteristics found in Icelandic wool.
We will also be having our popular mini-sessions, including principles of finishing, tubular cast on and bind off, provisional cast ons, and embellishing your knitwear, which are technique-based, designed to elevate your knitting skills to a whole new level!
