This book has a really modern aesthetic, the authors wanted to get away from the gentle, therapeutic, ultra-feminine side of weaving, and show a different way of approaching the craft.

But those books already exist, and we think more people will weave if they feel like there's no one "best" way to do it, and that you don't have to be an expert from day one.…mehr

Autorenporträt
Born and raised in Mystic, Connecticut, Arianna Funk moved to Sweden right after earning her Master's in Visual Culture at NYU in 2011. She lives in Stockholm with her sons, Axel and Bror, and her partner Erik. When not weaving, she can be found cycling around the city, sailing their wooden boat, and busy experimenting in the kitchen. She's a small business owner, with a focus on handwoven goods and writing weaving drafts and she also designs patterns for Gist Yarn and Vävmagasinet, the Scandinavian Weaving Magazine. Miriam Parkman is originally from a small town in Northern Sweden but nowadays is based in Stockholm. She studied weaving and needlework at Handarbetets Vänner, Friends of Handicraft School 2013-2016. And after graduating spent three months as a design intern at MZ Fairtrade in Oaxaca, Mexico. She runs her company as a freelance textile artist, handweaver, designer, author, content creator, and (sometimes) a vintage stylist. As a textile designer and handweaver, she sees the warp as her paper and the weft as her brush and paint.
