Lonely Planet review

Knut August Almgren founded this historic weaving factory in 1883 after posing as a Frenchman in order to learn, and steal, the carefully guarded craft.) Now an adorable working museum, you can watch the weavers work the original Jacquard looms between and Mon to Thu, learn about Sweden's silk weaving history and swoon over shimmering fabrics. The museum shop is Stockholm's best bet for hand-woven products.
