Get introduced to circular knitting!

 

Using two colours of your choice, you will work with circular needles to create a cozy neck warmer for chilly days. You will select motifs from traditional Norwegian knitting patterns. Some prior knitting experience is required.

 

You will go home with your own knitted project (in progress).

 

Margit Seland is a Norwegian artist and textile craft educator. She studied art at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy and lived and worked in Amsterdam for 24 years. She currently resides in Trondheim, Norway. In recent years, her artistic practice has focused primarily on working with various textile materials.

 

Old sails, weathered by years of sun, sea, and salt, are among her favourite materials. She transforms them into sculptural objects using folding, embroidery, and knots. She also collects old rope and fishing nets that wash up along the coast, repurposing them into large wall hangings as a reflection on a major issue in our society: with every ebb and flow, more material washes ashore.
