Weave pennants in our drop-in workshop. (copy) (copy)

Welcome on your own, with a friend, or with your children to the museum on Saturday, February 8, to try weaving and maybe enjoy a coffee in the café. Using simple techniques, we’ll show you how to weave a pennant with endless variations.

Information

The day is designed to inspire and bring together people of all ages. You are welcome to leave your pennants for a collective garland that will decorate the city center during VÄV2025, but you’re equally free to keep the pennant you weave.

For whom: All ages, regardless of prior experience.

How: The weaving is done without a loom, using a cardboard base. Feel free to bring your own leftover yarn, fabric strips, and a large crochet hook. Materials will also be available on-site.

The workshop is offered in collaboration with Länsmuseet Gävleborg, Svenska Vävrådet, Spångmurs, and Gävle Municipality in preparation for the grand weaving fair VÄV2025, coming to Gävle on September 25–27. The aim is to encourage more people to try their hand at weaving while promoting the health benefits of crafting. Instructions for the pennants are already available on the weaving fair’s campaign page. Read more here!

While you’re at the museum, take the opportunity to purchase an admission ticket—or even an annual pass—to explore the museum’s exhibitions. Get inspired and discover our textile history through exciting collections of rugs, tapestries, artworks, colors, shapes, and patterns.
