I will be teaching a class July 2010

Knot This Way, Waxed Linen Fiber Sculptures

Sierra Nevada College 26th Annual Summer Workshops | 2010

Dates July 26th - 30th, 2010

This class is for beginners and those that have already done some knotting. Five non-stop days of knotting fun. I like to knot around found objects but we will also learn how to create a form to use to know around. I create small sculptures using a basketry technique known as knotting. It is a simple overhand knot which is knotted around a core of waxed linen threads. With variations of this simple knot, which is repeated over and over, I am able to create a variety of shapes, textures and color patterning.

You can take a workshop anywhere, but there's no place as gorgeous as Tahoe!
