Techniques of Swedish Sollerosom — Ethnic Textile Art by Phyllis Maurer

One of Sweden’s most recognized provinces is Dalarna, long famous for the decorative red and blue Dala horses. Another, less well-known folk art also comes from this area – the needlework technique called Sollerosom (or Soleron.)

Solleron Island, which is located on this lake, has given its name to the unique technique created there. This is a digital, downloadable product only.
