Nada Cizmarova, 34, worked for a logistics company in Berlin, but her dream was to open an online store selling Czech yarn in Germany. “Nada learned to knit just on her own,” said her husband, Petr Cizmar, who said that she had learned the craft from reading books and websites.

He and his wife had lived in Germantown, Md., for six years, and were raising a 5-year-old son, who was born in Rockville, Md., and is an American citizen.

Ms. Cizmarova was from Sobeslav, a town in the Czech Republic
