Market and knotting workshop on February 24

On February 24 from 10 AM to 4 PM at Kalnciema Quarter yard there will be a weekly farmers and craftsmen market. From  11 AM to 3 PM, visitors are welcome to learn how to tie a knot for luck at the workshop.

Waiting for spring, in the market there will be sweet natural lemonade - maple juice, local herbs, meat and cheese, cakes and other delicacies, as well as a wide range of handicrafts, which will be relevant also in the spring season.

From 11 AM to 3 PM in the knotting workshop, anyone interested will have the opportunity to learn how to tie a knot for good luck. This knot was already known in ancient China and elsewhere, where luck was associated with the fire symbol of the energy of life. The workshop will be headed by Ilze Vainovska, who by using seaman knots makes amulets and jewelry from completely untreated, amber caught in Liepāja.
