Inez have had a couple of workshops in Värmland and currently is mentoring crafter and knitter Ulrika Jäger. She's most recently held a workhop in Finnskogen, Lekvattnet, in July of 2024. Inez has been a textile crafts teacher and taught her pupils to knit. Entrelac has been her focus when teaching since she retired. There’s the tradition from the same cultural area, apart from other places in Sweden associated with the forested regions, of braiding in birch bark. The braiding of birch also gives the pattern of woven squares which give shape and form to e.g. bowls, baskets, boxes. This expression of form is like that of the clothing with entrelac/näverstickning. Ulrika Jäger, Sara Olsson University of St Andrews TEXT
