Presented in Faroe Islands Culture Days, join for a three-hour workshop led by renowned Faroese knitter Sára Mrdalo. This program will explore the rich tradition of Faroese knitting, teaching participants new techniques and different pattern-work such as lace, structure, cable knit, and two-colored patterns.

Two sessions of the program will be offered, one from 10 AM to 1 PM and one from 2 PM to 5 PM. Basic knowledge is needed for the workshop, with cast-on, knit and purl competence.

Sessions will be limited to 20 attendees per session; please reserve early to guarantee attendance.
