And the show showing some very interesting Textile art, in the same building, one floor above.

Eleonor Frankenberg, shows a way to create a colour- in-weave.

Below, Klara Neros recycling dress, Twistin’s weave with natural materials in weft and an knitted woman with child by Sandra Magnusson.                   

It is colourful and beautiful and very very rich – the exhibition with woven treasurs from Skåne.

Here is a gallery of pictures.

The techniques are:

Krabbasnår

Rosepath, Rosengång

Dukagång what we call a Blådrätt Blå is for Blue since the weft is dyed blue. This one is woven by Hanna Larsdotter year 1767.

A book about the exhibition is now availible. Just contact: www.ystad.se/klostret
