DREZNIK

We drove about 3 hours southwest of Belgrade last week to visit the village of Dreznik to meet an old woman who knits. The farther away you get from Belgrade, the more beautiful and raw the nature is, the cleaner the air is, very refreshing.

When we arrived at the homestead of Slava the knitter, we were greeted by 4 generations of her family who were so generous and warm, completely unspoiled, just really human. They served us homemade rakija, spinach pie, cookies, kaymak, cheese, bread...EVERYTHING grown or made on their farm, they even mill their own wheat. Wow...


pure wool, naturally colored yarn...
