Perhonen (‘butterfly’ in Finnish)
Poppana is traditional Finnish weaving style
Finnish Poppana weaving. Poppana weaving is a type of weaving in which the cloth is cut into bias. This gives the surface a velvety structure when it is woven and finished. The poppana made from the byssus is sewn into the byssus to make a cushion. The colours come out in a delightful way, and the four edges come together like the wings of a butterfly, hence the name.
