Roosimine - Estonian Inlay Knitting at John Arbon Textiles Mill Open Weekend

  • The Mayor’s Parlour South Molton Town Hall 5 Broad Street South Molton, England, EX36 3AB United Kingdom (map)

Roosimine is an Estonian inlay technique that creates the appearance of embroidery through intentional floats in contrasting yarn on the right side of your knitting.

It’s the perfect technique to add some embellishment to your knitting that is easier than intarsia. The name Roosimine translates to “decorating with roses”, which comes from a style of short stitch embroidery done on the Estonian island of Muhu.

This is a in person workshop at John Arbon Textiles Mill Open Weekend in South Molton, Devon, UK
