    My grandmother gave me all the things I needed for a traditional rya to make for my trouseau. I made it in 1964 for my wedding.

    My grandma had one that dated to 1890. Thankfully it's still in the family.

    This was a really interesting video, and watching the development of the rug with such beautiful motifs was delightful. Thank you for providing a comprehensive background history for this type of rug making, which really added to the video. It certainly provided food for thought regarding the revival and perpetuation of other traditional fabrics in a world of mass production. Thank you for sharing your work on this, which is much appreciated.

    If you want to try it, there are several small rya kits for beginners who want to try but aren’t ready for a huge project like mine.

    Lovely work! They do look like they have a lot in common with the norwegian rye. (though the most common modern rye here is perhaps the “fille-rye” - woven floor mats made out long strips of fabric scraps. And that is a different story/ technique 😊)

    What a wonderful rug!!! It turned out beautiful - as everything you make 💖 And, as usual I learned a lot from you (today especially about what the ruler is for - I have "inherited" 2 of the sort and had no idea what they were 😅). Thank you for showing us your wonderful work!! ❤

    Ahahahahaahahahahahahahh. The Rally English and the slightly psychotic look in the eyes. So very Finnish. Also, it is not a fabric. It is a cover or a wall tapestry.
