Welcome to Setesdal, Norway! We have driven to Bygland, located 420 km (260 miles) south of our home, to visit the place where Arne’s grandmother’s house once stood. With us, we bring a suitcase full of things related to her life in Setesdal and embark on a journey to find out more about her through the craft traditions of this region.
We bring your our new series Norwegian Craft Traditions - this time we are in Setesdal, last year we went to Lofoten.

What a wonderful dress 👗 from your great grandma. The story you will get from your home 🏡 town Arne. And the meaning of the all different stitch . So special guys .
You guys are so darned adorable. Everybody needs a pony. I’m going to love this series.
I have accepted that I will probably never see your beautiful country so seeing it through this series is so very appreciated. Arne your land is just breath taking!!!
I love those yarn colors and designs … they bring me right back to my childhood…I saved this video so I could watch it with no interruptions! You guys are great. Thank You so much for sharing your journey.
Oh, Arne and Carlos! I just love you both!
Love this episode. Beautiful scenery and also Arnie’s assets. So funny.
Thank you!
Oh my gosh, thank you both. I am a 73 year old quilter living in Middle, TN, USA. I started watching you because my Grandparents, Johan Erik Nordblom and Aina immigrated from Aland, Sweden, early 1900s to MA, USA. I wanted to learn something about their life/homeland in Scandinavia. They had 13 children, two died and lived in a converted barn, no running water or electricity for ever. And a lot of snow. My grandfather worked in home construction but I always wondered was he just homesick or hardy/tough? He came from a fishing family. It is easy to see the beauty but hardships and winter hunger were first. A teacher friend of mine warned me about "romanticizing" the past. Thank you for all the effort you both put into your channel, it always brightens my day.
So excited to hear about Family History.
Thank you for sharing. 🌈🌹💕👍💚
You are welcome!
So nice to see Arne's roots, the beautiful country and all the traditions. Looking forward to the next episodes.
Just what I needed. I live just outside Lake Tahoe on the other side of Mt Rose. It’s been a long summer of fires and smoke. Forest, blue skies and Arnie & Carlos brightened my day.
Hi Barbara! This is Barbara from Vacaville. Last year, we were the devastating wildfire locale. This year, I am in tears every time I see our majestic trees turning into torches. I’m a 50-year resident of Northern California, and Lake Tahoe was the first place I visited after arriving in 1972. Until recently, camping at Tahoe was an annual event: Fallen Leaf Lake, Sugar Pine Point, and D. L. Bliss are my favorite locations. I could go on and on! You are in my prayers for safety and comfort
@@barbarakb8847 Thanks for your kind thoughts and words.
I can’t thank you enough for sharing your lives with all of us. I get so much joy watching all your podcasts and especially looking forward to this history series.
It will be fun!
I love these historical road trips. Thank you.
I have to tell a little story. McCalls Needlework and Crafts Fall and
Winter 1967 and 1968 published (and put on the cover) a black and white stranded colorwork tunic with embroidery on the neckline, cuffs, and hemline. It made this Swedish-American girl's heart go pitty-pat. I never forgot it. Two years ago I started looking for
The magazine. A big thank you to someone who took care of it for 54 years before they decided to part with it. Now,I am stunned!!!
The embroidery on Arne's sweater is EXACTLY like the 1967 magazine's tunic.
Thank you for your wonderful video. i now know the tunic design is from SETESDAL! And at last i am going to knit it.
The Bold and the Beautiful is still airing on television here in the US. Growing up watching “my stories” with my grandma is a fond memory.
I am delighted. And enchanted. The usual broad smile spread on my face. This is going to be an incredible series and from the bottom of my heart, thank you for all you have put into creating it for us. Special big compliment to Eric for the excellent and stunning photography.
Thank you!
I love Arne and Carlos…❤️❤️❤️
Arne & Carlos ..
An amazing podcast. I can't to see more . It reminds me of my roots as well ..I still have the jumpers that my grandmother knitted while she lived in Sweden .
Many Blessings 💞💞💞💞💞🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
My mother (96) who recently passed ,her maiden name was Bogetviet and she lived in Bogetviet near Bergen. Having your Bestemors Bunad is priceless. My mother made one for my sisters and I which is the Hardanger Bunad. I’m excited to take this journey with you since it’s been 20 years since I been in Norway with my mom. I wish you a Happy Journey and many memories old and new!
WOW!!!!!! Arne you have such beautiful Heirlooms from your Ancestors that will be treasured for generations to come, if it wasn't for you finding those preciouses pieces from
the Barn, they would of been lost forever. Please do a history collection on the the embroidery, because like every culture there is a story to every stitch of craftsmanship that is told.
What an awesome collection and True to who your are today. Stunning knitwear. Sending Love and Hugs from NZ xx Well done both of you
I’m so excited for this series!!! I love hearing and learning about family histories.
Perfect!
Funny, i was just vf watching some young people exploring the area in Canada where their grandfather workrd in a coal mine after emigrating from Poland. Must be family history month. 🙂
'To show off my butt' was hilarious! Oh boy, can't wait for the road trip and all the crafts along the way. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy...
Thank you Arne and Carlos for filming this history of tradition in Norway. In this world that keeps getting more violent and polluted your videos bring a sense of calm and peace.
Thank you!
Hi, Arne and Carlos! Thank you for taking us on your journey! I'm so excited to see you explore your roots, Arne. I love the beautiful colors in the embroidery, and I'm excited to have your Norwegian yarn in my stash!
This is going to be great! Cant wait to see more of Norway and your lovely crafts. You two should get commissioned by the Norwegian Ministry of Tourism!
SO BEAUTIFUL ❣️😍
The landscape, the sweaters, the treasures, the story, the Beetle, the men.
I can’t wait to the next episode.
Love lily🌸
OMG! This is going to be amazing! I really enjoy seeing the Norwegian countryside and learning about your roots and traditions. Can't wait to see your new yarn!
Soon!
Wow! This is so exciting!!! Love that you are sharing this with us! Thank you!!!!!
We are glad you are joining us!
FABULOUS! I adore all European folk costumes, collected dolls as a child
💖
What a wonderful opportunity to explore your family's heritage, delve I to the history of the folk clothing, and see such a beautiful region in Norway!! Love the humor, as always!! 😘😂🤣😂🤣 Excited to learn more! Oh, I finished my first ever hat, and I did it Norwegian style! A gift to my Mom, and thank you for teaching me that, too! 🧶🇳🇴
Really looking forward to ur history lessons. Those sweaters r beautiful. Arne it must be very nostalgic for u going back to ur roots. C u both Sunday. 👏👏👏👌👌👋👋👋😎😎
So excited about this series! I bought a kit from Dale approximately 35 years ago and knit and embroidered the same sweater Arne is wearing. I must dig it out and put a picture somewhere !
How fun! My husband and I went to the Dale factory about 32 years ago and bought similar matching sweaters. They are in white. I need to drag them out too! 👍
👍👍👍👍👍
Oh my goodness! The music had me hooked and your driveling up in your Beetle! The episode was magical and I wasn’t ready for it to end! So looking forward to The Sweater Detective and everything else to come! Love, love, love you two and your adventures and your history ♥️
We hope you enjoy the rest of the series!
How excilting. What treasures. I can hardly wait to see and hear everything. Thank you so much for coming up with this idea. It will be a September to remember.
Setesdal September!
New travels and new yarn! Can’t wait to learn about Setesdal. Thanks for taking me along. Oooh! I want a pony!
That looks like a piece of Heaven. It's absolutely stunning! I am going to love this series. How fun to see where Arne's roots are and to learn more about Norway and Norwegian traditions. My roots are in northern New Jersey where it is not even close to being beautiful. I was adopted and grew up thinking I was half German, half Italian. It turns out that I am French Canadian, Dutch, Irish, English and Native American. I'm a real mutt lol.
Arne & Carlos are adorable and so creative. Enjoy their cooking episodes, the recipes and the interplay between them.
My husband’s family emigrated from Voss & Stavanger Norway, his Norwegian-speaking uncles were farmers in Wisconsin. During summer, my husband would stay and work on his uncles’ farms where he learned to cuss in Norwegian.
Oh wow! So beautiful there! I can’t wait to see more! Thank you Arne and Carlos😃….PS…show it off Arne😉
Arne and Carlos what a wonderful surprise you have for us this September. As always I can hardly wait for the next episode. Safe travels and thank you so much
You are welcome!
Going to love this series, you are great ambassadors for Norway. Hyacinth Bucket’s sister Violet had room for a pony. 😉
That's true!
How very beautiful and interesting. Can’t wait for more
Coming up!
What a wonderful series. Cannot wait for the next installment. Such a beautiful country with such rich traditions.
I am so excited for this journey , being from America I want to learn about Norwegian traditions. Arne, I am so happy for you to be finding out more information on your Grandmother. Carlos, your excitement gave me chills.
I'm excited that you have a new yarn line with Rowan. Looking forward to seeing it. Those sweaters are beautiful. Nice asset, Arne!
What a lovely series this is going to be. I can’t wait.
Absolutely gorgeous countryside! And yes, everybody needs a pony. 😂💕 So lovely to have you guys back!
Can't wait for the rest of this! I'm almost as excited as Carlos to follow you guys for the rest of this adventure.
We hope you like it!
I love a good mystery! Arne & Carlos, you make all of your videos so much fun and engaging for your subscribers. I am excited to join you on our Setesdal journey!
Love, love , love this new adventure! Can’t wait to follow along with you two, and learning all about Norwegian traditions in crafting. Arne, you are so right, everyone does need a pony! 💕🐴
Have saved up several episodes to binge watch and love, love, love this new “series” so far! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful scenery, beautiful clothes, and handiwork, beautiful books.
You said you'd have something exciting to share and this is beyond my expectations. I am very excited to watch this series. Great idea!
Arne is sooo funny! I can’t wait til Sunday and the sweater detective. Thank you so much for this series!
I just adore the hardanger fiddle. Thank you!
This video and of course you two is delightful. I can't wait for the next surprise. The new yarn is beautiful. Have fun on your journey.
Thank you!
This is going to be a wonderful adventure! How exciting this will be! I love the sweaters. Also besides your knitting, I love learning about your culture. I am a bit smaller than five feet two inches. I would fit nicely in your little beetle bug! Do you feel cramped in your car since you are so tall? I agree with you about that suitcase. What a gem! There is nothing like vintage to make me smile 😃. Can't wait til Sunday! Get your detective gear on 🕵️♂️!
I am so excited for this series! Going back to our roots is so grounding! Arne, I too think that is as excellent suitcase! Also, BUY THE PROPERTY!
Oh my, such an interesting episode. It’s so good to have you both back on my telly box every Wednesday again and Arne REALLY knows his suitcases! Take care and keep sharing your joy 🧶🌻🍂
Such a beautiful place... Must have been a hard life for your Grand mother especially in Winter... Gorgeous sweaters... so much work. So heartbreaking that the old costumes were lost... all hand sewn too, a lot of love has gone into that handiwork.
So nice to see Arne so excited! What a great beginning to this series.
How exciting. As a Canadian of Irish descent, I have lost many of those precious family ties
Oh Arne and Carlos, that view, soooo beautiful. I will never be able to visit Norway, but now, I can through you two. Ty. Looking forward to the upcoming videos. Yay❤️
Absolutely awesome episode! Love the history, the scenery, the laughter, the symbolism ... a perfect presentation. Thank you so very much. XXXX
You are welcome!
How fun to travel along with you! I have my 82 year old mother visiting me and she loves your videos. I have subscribed her and taught her to use TH-cam so she can watch you when she is back home.
Love the tour and get a chuckle out of how many ways Setesdal is listed in the closed captions, and "folk costumes", too. Keeps me on my toes. But seriously, what a beautiful and enriching area to tour. It's definitely on my bucket list.
I'm in love - the landscaoe, the sweaters 😍😍 Can't wait for the sweater detective and all the other people! Thank you!
I was born in Kristiansand, but my fathers family came from Setersdalen. As a kid I had "Grafferdrakt", but when the time came as an adult to choose a national custom, I wanted a "Seterdalsdrakt" and used it proudly for years and years. Only good memories from Setersdalen! Lovely 'to be back' with the two of you.
We are glad you joined us Sigrun!
I can't wait to see all these episodes in Setesdal! I'm a firm believer in sustaining old traditions and acknowledging and celebrating your ancestry and history, so I know I am really going to enjoy this 😀 Thank you for sharing your journey with us all 👍
THANK YOU guys, so much for taking me to Setesdal, Norway! I am so looking forward to this trip and to learn more about Norway! This is so exciting -- what a great idea!
The colors are so bright! It's amazing that the fabrics are so old!
It's so great to see this part of Norway. It's beautiful. Thank you.
How very delightful!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful journey! It's so nice to learn about the heritage of you two wonderful people!
I’m looking forward to seeing more! How nice to go back to your roots. My great grandmother Svennes and her husband came from about an hour away from Oslo and settled in Wisconsin. I have her spinning wheel dated 1854 and I cherish it. That is beautiful country.
Am so excited to travel with you and see and hear all about your many adventures! Between Arne’s comment about why he likes his sweater short and Carlos’ “yada, yada, yada”, I am hooked, lol. 😁
Just wonderful. So looking forward to all the episodes. Thank you .
Beautiful jumpers. Looking forward to these episodes, fabulous idea 😁👍
💚🌷💜
Such beautiful scenery. Thank you so much for showing us another part of the world. New Orleans LA does not compare.
How fabulous.... I love hearing about folk history and how that interconnects with fabrics and yarns. I'm going to really enjoy this September, thank you
Spectacular views accompanying historical things and information....always a good combination.
Can't wait to see all the beautiful textiles and scenery! Such fun!
Looking forward to what promises to be a fabulous series!
Queridos! Thank you ever so much for this beautiful series. I love Norway and it is like being on vacation, traveling with you. I love the sound of the gravel as you walk, I could feel the fresh air, I enjoyed the clouds floating in the mountains behind you -- all the ambientation, the silence of the mountains. This is a needed fantasy break in the ongoing world situation. Big love from Chicago!
Just wow. Thank you two for this lovely episode. I am looking forward to more. 😍
What a fabulous trip this is going to be. Thank you guys for taking us along with you.
Hello from the UK. Thanks very much for this. I’m looking forward to seeing the Norwegian countryside and all the crafts. I love Norway. I’ve only visited once but would love to go again sometime. 😊
what a beautiful place, and now I'm so excited about finding out more, and about the new yarn, and about Arne's roots - but I have to admit I will miss Helmer and Freya for a while.
It's so exciting to hunt for your ancestors. I recently began my genealogical background to find out when and where they came from in Europe, I'm in the USA and grew up in Pennsylvania. I'd done my DNA test a couple years ago so I had a general idea of location. So far, Switzerland and Germany are the countries. One ancestor was actually buried in the Atlantic on the way here. I'd traced both grandmother's families, next the grandfather's. 🥰🥰🥰
So excited about this new adventure/series. I'm really interested in this history. Thank you! Can't wait until Sunday.
I bought the pattern book for the Norwegian Olympic ski team’s sweaters of the past 50 years. Ok…I bought it 15 years ago and have moved it all over the world with me. Maybe this series will inspire me to finally knit one. Or even better…maybe Arne & Carlos have designed a pattern to launch with their new wool and kits will be for sale…hint hint! Loving this look into Norway and it’s culture. Thank you.
Hi Arne and Carlos, this journey is going to be good. I cannot wait for the next video. Thanks for taking us along with you. The sweaters are beautiful. The craftsmanship that went in creating them are a work of art.
Gasoline is expensive and we are staying inside to avoid the heat and also avoiding contact to keep Co vid and other diseases from spreading. And we get to travel with you. Our family still owns land that was first lived on by our ancestors. The house is gone, but the younger ones have taken a bumpy tide on a truck to see the spot where the house once was. I am glad we have those memories.
Wow, you guys really outdid yourselves! Oh this is going to be so exciting, I can't wait! The scenery is just spectacular. What a privilege to be introduced to Arne's roots.
Congratulations on your new line with Rowan! Also, the sweaters are simply stunning. They give the right "flavour", shall we say, to all the lovely things we will see, hear, and learn.
Thank you so much for having this idea and for bringing us along. Also a big thank you to Eric for his great photography and filming.
This series is so exciting! Learning more about Setesdal and it’s folk traditions will greatly enhance an in-person visit. A Norwegian vacation is #1 my bucket list; knitting a Setesdal jacket is #2. Thank you for sharing your Setesdal roots with us. It’s such a beautiful place. And I adore your new yarn!
My mom still watches The Bold and The Beautiful... she's watched it since the 80s when I was a kid.
You guys look great in your sweaters! I love the embroidery, it's beautiful. That skirt is beautiful too 🥰
Thank you!
How wonderful to trace your roots thank you so much to look forward to ❤️
Arne and Carlos. Thank you for teaching us about the area and the customs. I love this series. I can’t wait for each episode, and am saving all of them to rewatch. The Sedestal is one of my favorite designs.
😀
Thank you so much for setting up this series! Looking forward to meet ‘the sweater detective’ in your next episode . I love Norway 🇳🇴 AND knitting and was so happy meeting her already in her shop😇 a few years ago. Sending greetings from Holland🇳🇱
Enjoyed this episode! And I chuckled at needing room for a pony comment! Can’t wait to see more about all of the traditions.
I loved this episode you two.. Thankyou... beautiful Norway.. Lovely to see you both ''free range''
This was so interesting. Can’t wait for the next episode. Especially the Norwegian. And I love the Bold and the Beautiful even more now !
