About Vävstuga Press
Vävstuga Press emerged from Becky's weaving business in 2002. After attending weaving classes with Becky, students wishing to continue studying experienced trouble finding important resources. Becky founded the press as a way to provide access to rare and out-of-print Swedish weaving books and create English translations of books currently available only in Swedish. Due to the existence of so many wonderful Swedish books, this can clearly be in a lifetime venture!
