We have spent time recovering in Northern Norway this summer, and now we’d like to invite you to take a virtual road trip with us!
Every Tuesday and Thursday throughout August, we will release little video postcards from our stay in the stunning Lofoten Islands on YouTube. So, pack your virtual bags (bring lots of projects), remember to turn on your YouTube notifications and get ready to join us as we explore this fantastic place north of the Arctic circle, in the land of the midnight sun!
We will also start publishing newly recorded tutorials on our channel at our usual time on Sundays, beginning on August 2nd. Most of the new tutorials which we are going to publish on Sundays were recorded in Lofoten, as we thought it would be nice to get a change of scenery.
And finally, our NEW weekly podcast will premiere on September 9th!! So keep your eyes peeled!
We hope you will enjoy the teaser here below, for what’s to come.
Hugs, ARNE & CARLOS x

Greetings from Wisconsin! Welcome back and thank you for the beautiful pictures of your trip and travels in your bug. My first car was a 1959 VW bug, wish I still had that one! Can’t wait o see what’s next. So happy you are both well.
I’ve been waiting for you to come back. It was worth the wait. Now I can feel like I took a vacation this summer too! You guys are the greatest. I can’t wait.
A spiritual journey for this pandemic times. Thanks in advance!
So glad you’re back, missed you, but happy your both well. Your podcasts helped me tremendously thru Covid 19.
Welcome back! We missed you so much but so glad to know and see that you’re both well. Looking forward to seeing you and taking this amazing virtual trip with you! Love your pics from Lofoten…beautiful place! Thank you for everything! Lots of hugs from New York!
Guys, I tried to read everyone’s comments above. There were many, so I speed read. I’d have to say ditto to everything everyone else said and you know we love you, right? Speaking for myself, as much as anyone can love someone whom they’ve never met in person. You are one of the lights of my life. I’ll choose your videos over television any day! Glad you’re taking care of yourselves and each other. xoxo
Welcome back. It’s going to be so much fun seeing what comes next.
I am so happy that you are both feeling better and had a wonderful time in northern Norway.
I am Thankful band Pleased that you both are doing great again..cant wait to see you both again back at what we all love to do…
So glad to see you back! Take care of each other, in this life you only have your loved ones.
And of course knitting, I am very much a beginner knitter, ( if you could call me that) I knit a mean dishcloth… lol but you have inspired me to make your easiest socks in the world. Well, let me tell you, so much fun and I can actually do it!
I’m at the 1 and a half mark on a pair and have already purchased more sock yarn!
Thank you for your knowledge, your videos and I’ll certainly be watching for more in amazement!
Thank you so very much! I have some of your books and have knitted with your yarn but only recently started watching your you tube and podcasts. Your calm and genuine personalities have greatly helped me during quarantine and my own illness. I sat and knitted and watched your You Tube and felt as though we were friends hanging out comfortably chatting while working on projects new and old. I love the way you share so many topics and aspects of your life and beautiful surroundings! I see, Knit, crochet and garden too, oh, and I have a dog named Ellie🥰. I hope to meet you in person someday, would love to travel to Norway, it looks pristine and lovely. I am moving to a place with more snow and can hardly wait for magical winter moments (will light lanterns, Arne!)
Grateful to both of you and your outstanding staff!
Looking forward to all your new podcasts. So glad you are fully recovered. Thank you so much for all your inspiring creativity and lifestyle ethos.

All I can say is welcome back! You were missed!
Greetings en hugs fron Nederland
Welcome back! So glad you took time to rest and rejuvenate and cannot wait to see what you have in store for us. Be well!
I have just discovered your videos and have already changed my “continental” style of knitting to the “Norwegian “. I no longer have cramped fingers! Binge watching your programs has opened up a whole new world of knitting for me. Thank you so much. Glad you both are feeling better and I am looking forward to seeing your wonderful work. Be safe. Be well.
Great o see you guys again. Anxiously waiting to see the new videos you’ve made. Thank you for everything you do. I have just ordered a new tandem bicycle and am thinking of things I can knit and attach to it. Have you done any things for tandems before? Looking so forward to you both being on youtube again.
Tusen takk 🙂👍
I am so excited to spend time with you both on our virtual trip!
As always..it looks amazing Gentleman! I look so forward to seeing your work in the coming weeks!
Cheers,
Yvonne
Thrilled that you are feeling better. I too discovered you through the Quarantine KAL and am so glad about that, too. Better times ahead. Onward!
So glad you’re back and feeling ready to start a new fall adventure.
Wow!
Produced so beautifully! I so enjoy watching the evolution of your programming, and appreciate your honesty.
You (two) are the tonic much of the world need right now.
And I can’t thank you enough!
Great fully yours,
Lawan
welcome back! Glad to hear you two are on the mend!
Hooray! I’ve got my notifications on and ready to see the lovely Lofoten Islands with you. Loved seeing Arne behind the “Beetle” VW. My son has a vintage convertible (17 years old) and strangers often wave as he passes. Thanks 😊 for sharing with us….hugs back.
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
I’ve been sitting on my deck, starting to stitch my KAL patches into a blanket, and that will be much more enjoyable when your podcasts return!
So glad you’re recovering from the terrible virus, & I hope that porridge has helped!
So happy you are back ! I miss you.
How wonderful to read your exciting news..new episodes and mini travel logs..just what is needed in our shut down world..welcome back
So glad to see you both back and refreshed! I can’t wait to see what you have to share. I have been working on UFO’s since completing the Quarantine Knitting pillows (made the 3 you designed). In case you missed my suggestion for a new name for your podcasts, here it is again “Purls of Wisdom Knit Together by Arne & Carlos”. Safe travels, and stay well!
Happy to know you will be back soon. I discovered you just when the pandemic arrived and became addicted, and then you both became ill with covid19. So it was a great disappointment to hear that you were ill. So, can’t wait to see you both back and healthy. I love all your work.
Glad to see that you are feeling well enough to travel. I look forward to following your adventures and seeing Norway. Thank you for all that you do, your patterns, books and newsletters. You have added to our family holiday traditions because every year the Christmas Balls come out! I am so happy that I stumbled upon your book so many years ago while browsing in a book store in Portland, Oregon. I would never have known about you.
Very happy that you took time for yourselves. Welcome back, I’m excited
I am looking forward to viewing your R and R on the Island. You were missed.
Glad to have you back!! Wonderful idea to film in northern Norway! I’m really looking forward to these new videos. Thank you.
Hei dere to,
Herlig at dere er tilbake i god form igjen. Supert at multitalenter som dere deler så villig med oss som er sånn mer vanlig talentert. Dere kan jo alt mulig håndarbeide pluss koking og baking og mer til. Jeg skjønner at det var en tabbe at jeg ikke lærte mine fem sønner å strikke. 😔
Gleder meg til å se dere på YouTub igjen. Klem fra Sigrid 👵🤗🥰
All I can say is welcome back! You were missed!
Yay! So glad you are recovered and rested. Been catching up on past videos so as not to miss you TOO much. Thanks for all you’ve shared and taught. ❤
So happy ya’ll are doing well. Can’t wait to see the new programs
Hugs to you and so glad you’re back and well!
Welcome back, Arne and Carlos. So happy you will be inspiring us all. Come back to Minnesota soon.
Thank you so much for all your videos, I have learned so much from them. I visited those islands for a short day on our cruise to Norway. Hardly enough time to enjoy them. But reading the book ‘Into the Light ‘ by David and Raja Martin really gave me the desire to visit your beautiful country. The sailed to Norway with three young children and wintered in the Lofoten Islands for at least a year. A Great adventure read!
Thank you for this glimpse of the beautiful Lofoten. Hope you got plenty of rest and relaxation!
Wow … so beautiful!
