Courses in sewing, knitting and other handiwork
Coming to Egilsstaðir by plane or ferry boat?
Would you and your group like to participate in a course to learn how to do handiwork like Icelandic women learned?
Next summer the museum will be displaying some of its many beautiful and amazing works of eastern Icelandic women.
We would like to explore interest in the possibility to offer foreign groups an opportunity to learn knitting, crochet, needle-binding, tatting or other kinds of tapestry decorating. Groups of 8-12 participants may be able to receive a 3-7 day course in one or more of the above in English.
The perfect way to spend a week in East Iceland, see sights, have fun, and learn tradtions!
