The tradition of Latvian mittens

Listen to Céline's lecture on the Latvian mittens tradition. Knitting is a wonderful time machine. By following its multicolored threads, it is a journey from one country to another and from one culture to another. The tradition of Latvian mittens invites us to discover history within history. How this popular art was part of a search for cultural and national identity by a country constantly under occupation.

Latvia is a beautiful country deeply connected to its surrounding nature. These exceptionally beautiful mittens invite us to discover shamanic symbols, wedding rites and a feeling of belonging.
