Description: I wove this rug in Wynne Mattila’s class in krokbragd technique at the Weavers Guild of Minnesota. The colors remind me of ancient pottery.

Regarding the Scandinavian Weavers Group: It has been wonderful to find a group of weavers who share my passion for Scandinavian weaving traditions. Along with my excellent instructors at the Weavers Guild of Minnesota, the Scandinavian Weavers have expanded my knowledge, improved my technical skills, and cheered me on me when I got discouraged. Best of all, it’s fun!
