United colors of crochet : inuits
Crochet is one of the most widely spread textile art form in the world. Most
cultures have developed their own technics and have their own traditional crocheted
items. I recently stumbled upon this inuit nassak,
it's a quite recent tradition, a crocheted hat with a colorful pattern.
You might want to see other exemples on this site:
Mothers who are fond of baby wearing will be able to see another interesting traditional inuit item : the amautik,
a coat that allows the mother to wear her baby (from 0 to 3 years old) in her
back while keeping both warm and comfortable.
