Traditional Scandinavian weaving has fascinated me and connected me to my Swedish and Finnish heritage and culture. Something is deeply familiar to me as I use the traditional floor looms, or weave linen & cotton yarns. I have taken these traditions, tools & materials and carried them forward, with an eye to the past and a compelling interest in following a path ahead.
