Welcome to the Travelling Loom

February 07, 2022 1 Comment

Welcome to my new blog series, The Travelling Loom. Every few weeks, The Travelling Loom (one of my Mini Weaving Kits) will be heading off to a different fibre artist to document their experience with create a mini weaving. The idea of this blog is to offer the readers a look into the creative experiences of various fibre artists using the same loom and tools and to provide inspiration for emerging weavers. Some blog posts may be a tutorial to create a similar weaving, or they may be an insight into the artists process of weaving and use of materials and their inspirations. 

If you are a fibre artist and would like to have a visit from the travelling loom, or you'd like to nominate one of your favourite fibre artists, leave a comment below ❤️
