What Are the BEST Places to Visit in Portugal? – ASK #016

ByMAKE. DO. GROW January 23, 2023 0 min

We need to get out more. We’ve lived in the interior of Portugal for over two years and haven’t seen as much of this beautiful country as we would like. So we need your help. In this ASK video, we have a question for you: “what are the best places to visit in Portugal?”

We’ll share details (and some photos) of a few places we HAVE been so you can get an idea of the kinds of things we enjoying doing and we’re really looking forward to hearing your suggestions.

So, where should we visit in Portugal?

Yarn Projects (crochet/knitting)

Knitting Needles

I've only just started knitting again and have had to upgrade from my original Symfonie needles (they tend to snap quite easily). I have a set of stainless steel needles from ChiaoGoo and also an ebony set from Lantern Moon.

I like both! The stainless steel was a little hard to get used to but yarn really glides on them. I like the look and feel of the Lantern Moon set too, but unfortunately they don't come in all the sizes I tend to use so I now end up switching between the two sets.

Crochet Hooks

I've tried loads of different single hooks to find the 'perfect' hook. I finally found what I was looking for in the Clover soft touch range. The hook glides well and the thumb rest is really comfortable. Unfortunately they don't seem to be available in a set, so I have a jar full of all the sizes I like to use.

Tunisian Crochet Hooks

My favourites are these from Lantern Moon, they're super comfortable and glide really well, and the best bit is that they swivel. They are also compatible with the KnitPro Symfonie hooks (these seem less sturdy but also glide well).

I also have a set from ChiaoGoo made from bamboo. These are very lightweight but I find that they can snag on some yarns (a nail file often helps to make the hook head better).
