Workshop in Fårö
July 2023
The first Morus silk thread-workshop took place on Fårö. On this particular farm, Elisabeth Blessell (after marriage: Kahl) was born in 1791. Elisabeth Kahl was a teacher in sericulture in Visby from 1840-1845. Her students were a group of young women and widows at an institution called Arbetshuset. We are very grateful to the owners who welcomed us to their home.
The exhibition and workshops on Gotland were realised with support from the Swedish Arts Grants Committee.
