WEAVING IS A PROCESS
It begins with a single thread…
…and a lot of math…
…and at the end.
The fibers dictate the math dictate the fibers. This is where it starts, with deliberate, careful intention. One thread at a time. Slowly they build on a warping board, everything done precisely and slowly, keeping tension even, and then they’re brought to the loom for dressing.
I think about what I really want to see or to feel or to hold. And then I work backwards: marrying the best fibers for the job to the best weave structure for the desired outcome. Does the cloth want to be soft and lofty and warm? Does it want to work? Does it want to exist in the world with no other purpose than to be itself? And then I get to work.
