Summer 2018

 

This issue of your Journal ventures far and wide!

 

Explore traditional weaving on the Pacific Outer Islands of Yap as the indigenous craftswomen maintain their cultural identity, whilst, firmly within our shores, a Bradford-based group of enthusiasts attempt to recreate historical dye recipes at a restored local mill.

 

Follow the inspiring story of a new weaver, who mounted her own private exhibition of textiles woven on homemade looms just a year after starting to weave.

 

Then travel overseas again, this time to the Ryukyu Islands of Japan to learn the intricacies of the meticulous art of ikat, a resist dyeing technique practised in many countries.

 

For spinners, we provide tips for maintaining your spinning equipment - and pose an interesting question : Are dog combs suitable for fibre preparation?

 

Our regular features include Guild Highlights, Reader's Showcase (featuring the collaborative boundweave project on our front cover), Exhibition Reviews (from London to India) and Book Reviews.
