The Yarn Tree Weaving Show at Habu
My Friday night started with a glass of red wine while perusing the intricacies of warp and weft. The Yarn Tree is having a show of their beginner and intermediate students at Habu Textiles.
When I look at artwork (be it fiber, paintings, drawings, etc.), I like to first take in the whole thing then look closely, in this case, at the textures and details of the yarn -
These beginner students’ weaving work selected yarns whose textures and weaving structures fascinated me -
The fiber artists from top to bottom: Valerie Knecht, Lillian Figueroa, Daniela Serowinski and Aldona Rygelis.
Congratulations weavers!

What wonderful works of art! I’m intrigued by Habu Yarns and the designers behind them. Next time I’m in New York I’m definitely swinging by their shop.

Becky - you will love Habu! Their yarn is top-notch quality. They carry many yarns from Japan and unique yarns like silk with a stainless steel core. Takako, Habu’s owner and a weaver herself, travels to England for some of her events. Is that closer/easier to/for you?
