In the workshop "Garnarbete – Då, Nu, Sen" (Yarn Work – Past, Present, Future) hands are kept busy with yarn while the organizers engage in conversations with the participants raising questions about yarn work. Who is allowed and who is not allowed to work with yarn? Are there hierarchies between different textile techniques, and what does the future hold for yarn work and those who work with yarn as a material? The workshop is held in Swedish.
