Seamlessly Clever
Åsa Tricosa or rather Asa Soderman is renowned for her Ziggurat technique, i.e. no seaming, no cutting and no joining, to produce knitwear that is distinctly Scandinavian in style. Although this method is by no means intuitive or traditional, it 'may soon feel the most natural of techniques'.
Asa will be holding a 'Seamlessly Clever' knitting workshop, 'Seamlessly Clever' for Les Soeurs Anglaises in October. Knitters will be able to take their practice onto a new level whilst learning from someone with both a technical and creative eye. Asa Tricosa's designs are fresh and well thought out.
Les Soeurs Anglaises is situated in the South West of France and offers textile craft based workshops for anyone to learn a new skill or improve on an existing passion. Tools are provided and all classes are taught by carefully picked experts.
Les Soeurs Anglaises is offering UK Selvedge readers an EXCLUSIVE 10% discount for anyone using the word Selvedge when they book. Flights via Ryan Air are to Bergerac where a collection and delivery service is on offer. Bookings must be made by the 14th August at the latest to ensure a place.

Thank you for the notice of this unmissable week. I would love to be there BUT it is far beyond my means. Will it happen in UK before long? I will beat a path there if it is not too expensive. I am an accomplished sewer and knitter and always look to improve my techniques.
Yours with thanks,
Virginia
