The yarn Inez uses are from Norway. She finds that the norweigian yarn is of a especially high quality unlike other yarns. It is soft and easy to knit with. Inez buys her wool from a local knitting store in Sunne: www.lillagarnverstan.se. The yarn is from Rauma Ullvarefabrikk's website: www.rauma.no

The artefact is made with stockinette stitch and entrelac. She knits them from the right side and with circular needles.
