Knitting Pop-up shop at Hotel Nestor 10.5.2025

You're Invited to an Afternoon of Yarn, Coffee & Community

🧶 Saturday, May 10th, 2025 | 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM
📍 Hotel Nestor, Korpo

It all started with a few curious questions: “Can we come too?”

And now—by popular demand—we’re opening the doors to our knitting retreat for a very special afternoon event, just for the local archipelago community and visiting yarn lovers alike!

Step into the welcoming atmosphere of Hotel Nestor on Saturday, May 10th, from 3 to 5 PM, where the beauty of the archipelago meets the cozy world of yarn and stitches.

We’re thrilled to host a pop-up shop featuring the hand-dyed yarns of Säie Wool and the curated selection of knitting tools and accessories from knits.fi. Whether you're an experienced knitter, a curious beginner, or simply love beautiful things—you’re invited to browse, touch, and get inspired.

 

While you're here, treat yourself to Hotel Nestor’s delicious afternoon coffee offering:

🍰 Freshly baked warm rhubarb pie
🍦 Homemade vanilla ice cream
🍓 Strawberry sorbet

All for just 9,50€, served in the peaceful setting of the Korpo countryside.

 

This event is part of the Knittingadventures Retreat, hosted by Tanja and Marina—and now open for the wider community to enjoy. It’s a lovely excuse for locals to visit Hotel Nestor for a relaxing afternoon, and for guests coming from further away, a scenic day trip to Korpo well worth the journey.

 

Come for the yarn. Stay for the pie. Leave inspired.
We can’t wait to see you there. 💛

As I’m writing this, we still have a few spots left for the Knittingadventures Retreat happening that same weekend. If you'd love to soak in the creative atmosphere, join workshops, relax in the sauna, and connect with fellow knitters—now’s the time to secure your place!

We are two friends who could not find knitting events that we liked so we decided to organise our own! Our aim is to create a warm and welcoming knitting community, with a home base in the Finnish Archipelago. Follow us on Instagram and Tiktok @marinasknitting @madeby_th
