Having grown-up in a sub-tropical country, I hardly ever had the chance to develop my curiosity when it came to knitting. Three years ago, I started a PhD program in northern Sweden and almost two years ago, one of my supervisors taught me how to knit in the round. From then on, I just got hooked. Living in such a cold part of the world has let me jump right into knitting, and the weather also lets me wear everything I make (and knit things for my friends!).
This is my last year as a student. I'm set to finish my thesis this spring semester and defend in the autumn. In my department, PhD students usually give a small present to their supervisors in the post-defense party. Rather than giving them something bought back home, I decided I would make something for all three of them. This blog is to help me document my knitting as I navigate my way through learning how to knit lace and maybe share some of my baking stuff. It feels nice to write something that is not meant to go through peer review! (or my supervisors!)
