Sätergläntan, a Dalecarlian Weaving School
Article · 9 pages
Article describing Sätergläntan, a weaving school in Dalecarlia, Sweden, run by the Misses Vilma and Elsa Långbers near Lake Insjön. It covers the school's setting, its revival of old Dalecarlian patterns and plant dyeing, and includes a 1793 Sollerö parish law regulating peasant costume materials. The article is followed by forty numbered photographs of woven samples (rose-step, geese-eye curve, monk's belt, Leksand pattern, in-woven and hand embroidery, rugs) with captions, but no threading drafts.
