Aran Knitting and Cultural Significance with Edel MacBride

Atlantic Crossing Hat Knitting with Edel MacBride

Join me Edel MacBride for a visual talk on the role Aran knitwear has played in helping define Irishness and why. How threatened is it and how can we help it survive for future generations? What is great Aran knitting and how can I learn more? As a visual skill set originally, how can I read Aran knitting? We will look at the resurgence of Irish grown wool and examine samples. Donegal spun wool to play with in class and some inspiring homework too.
