VIRTUAL Nordic Handcraft Workshop: Wire Whisk with Kayla McDaniels

Try out the traditional Scandinavian art of luffarslöjd, or wire work, while making a practical wire whisk for your kitchen! Traditionally made by traveling peddlers, wire objects have been found in Scandinavian homes and farmsteads for hundreds of years. With a pair of pliers and few dowels, you will transform stainless steel wire into a useful object to take home and put to use.
