Vessel Twining Workshop

Twining (in Māori tāniko) is a hand weaving technique that doesn’t require any tools. Join me for another day of learning how to start, twine and finish your own little vessel. While this is a perfect technique to twine with natural fibres, we are using cotton thread, that is easy to handle and doesn’t require any preparation. As I have a passion working with natural fibres and I will give you loads of information, so you can start your own journey of using natural fibres such as vines, red hot poker, linen and more.
After this workshop you will be able to start experimenting with other fibres and forms.

What else we will cover in this workshop
• harvest, storage and preparation of natural fibres
• other fibres and materials that are suitable for twining
• ideas and suggestions how you could decorate your vessel

This workshop is suitable for absolute beginners with no previous weaving experience.
Materials and tools are provided; bring a notebook and/or camera if you wish to take notes

Cost: $ 130 (bring your own lunch/no cafes close by), refreshments provided
