Swedish Wheat Weaving

Make and take your own Swedish wheat weaving in this introduction to the five-thousand year old cultural practice of plaiting straw into a harvest blessing. Stalks of wheat from this year’s crop are woven into beautiful designs and often adorned with red ribbons to symbolize poppies, which bloom in the fields in Sweden. See various designs, patterns, and techniques and learn to make a keepsake ornament.
