Swedish Patterns for Art Weaves and Embroidery
$50.00
by Jakob Kulles
Design inspiration! This historical documentation of the patterns used in the art weaves of Skåne in southern Sweden will sustain you for a weaving lifetime, or two. Jacob Kulle was part of the folk arts and crafts movement at the turn of the 20th c. He spent two decades in the late 19th c. collecting and documenting the myriad pattern designs used by home weavers ("peasant weavers," as he called them) in their art weaves including rosengång, krabbasnår, and opphämta. A beautiful reproduction in both Swedish and English with 36 color plates.
