How the association operates
Anjalankosken Käsityöläiset ry is a registered association run by a board elected by its members. Its activities rely on members' own initiative and volunteer work.
The rules, board composition and activity reports will be published on this website once they have been confirmed.
Handicrafts and creativity
The activities cover a wide range of crafts: sewing, knitting, crochet, patchwork, lace and candle making. The photographs on this site come from the association's own gatherings and sales tables.
