Norway and Iceland Fjords cruise / Laura Nelkin and Mary Annarella
June 14 - June 28, 2026
SOLD OUT
Join Laura Nelkin of Nelkin Design, Mary Annarella of Lyrical Knits, and Wild Onion as we spend 14 full days on board Holland America’s newest ship, the Rotterdam.
We’ll cruise to three of knitters’ dreamiest spots: Iceland, Norway, AND Scotland! When we’re not exploring these glorious places, or swooning over the fantastical fjords, we’ll have exciting knitting classes and projects planned to make this a truly spectacular cruise.
ALL INCLUSIVE
Join Four Purls owner (and mother of Emma) Laura Dobratz and her team, Paper Daisy, Lyrical Knits, and TellyBean Knits for a retreat you won’t want to miss. We’ll have classes, lectures, projects, knitting, and of course, a fantastic yarn market!
Everything is included- your room, meals, classes, lectures, projects, swag, hikes…ok, the yarn you buy at the market is extra.
Hurry, classes are close to full and you won’t want to miss this event! Click here to read more and register!

ALL INCLUSIVE
Join Melanie Berg of Mairlynd Designs as we knit our way through the spectacular New Zealand countryside and fjords with additional stopovers in vibrant Sydney and Melbourne, Australia. For two full weeks, we’ll knit exclusive patterns, as well as attend all the classes with our talented designer. We are planning exclusive excursions, in addition to all the fun we’ll have on the ship.
Don’t delay in registering for this cruise, as we are filling up fast and only have a few cabins remaining at this time.
ABOUT US
Susan -- Wild Onion
We specialize in smaller gatherings, to interesting places, with fabulous teachers. Our retreats are designed to foster friendship and fun, so we don’t overload our guests with classes, and because we cap our attendance at 25 guests, there is ample opportunity to get to know the designer and the other guests.
We often hear “you’re more expensive than other retreats, but it was worth every penny!” and we agree. The care we take in overseeing every aspect of our retreats is evident: from our chosen hotels, to the placement of our cruise cabins, to the classes and projects (and side-quests) we provide!
With over 30 years of experience leading trips, teaching classes, and having fun, we can’t wait to welcome you to one of our unique retreats!
