Description: I wove this piece in Rosepath technique during a Scandinavian Weavers group project. The abstract design is meant to suggest a snowy pine forest and a night sky with the Northern Lights overhead.

About the Scandinavian Weavers Study 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, they have expanded my knowledge, improved my technical skills, and cheered me on me when I get discouraged. Best of all, it’s fun!
