This class will focus on designing and knitting a personalized Selbu mitten from the municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway.

Students will learn about the elements of traditional Selbu mittens and delve into the meaning behind each motif.
Kristin's new Selbu Name Day e-book has beautiful and symbolic Selbu motifs that knitters can choose to mix and match to design and knit a mitten that tells their own unique story. Knitters may choose to design their piece based on one from Kristin's book, a family mitten, or even a mitten that represents the immigration of their family to America.
