Maker Showcase
Showcase celebrating the launch of Angie’s book - Krokbragd – Contemporary Weaving With Colour.
This book by Angie Parker is a practical guide to all aspects of this popular Norwegian weaving technique. With over 400 beautiful photographs and step-by-step instruction, it gives a detailed account of the techniques used by the author and other contemporary weavers. Written for weavers of all abilities, it features vibrant designs and patterns, and shows how this age-old Scandinavian technique can be given a 21st century twist to create stunning contemporary work.
Expect to see pieces celebrating this tradition, using Angie’s signature unorthodox and vibrant colour combinations!
