Hands knitting with a needle and red yarn at El Gantxillo de Mari, an artisanal activity.

Weaving Memories

En tejiendo recuerdos, cada hilo guarda historias de Navarra y de quienes han tejido estas tierras dure generaciones. The gantxillo is memory, creativity and a gesture linked to everyday life. This experience is based on the traditional craftsmanship of practice, working with wool and natural tints. A long way down, we discover the basic processes of the technique and learn the basic points down, high and low in a quiet and surrounding environment. This is an art that accompanies the process with attention, ensuring that each person encounters its subject and relates to the material from the direct experience, point to point.

The activity is finalized with the creation of an individual piece and a small collective project, a moment to observe the achievement and its appearance with the group. A sencillo cierre that brings the tejido into tangible collection and connects patrimony, creativity and community of a cercana and significant form.
