The Weaving Rainbow
Macrame, woven tapestries, and macraweaves
I started making macrame and woven tapestries about 4 years ago as a hobby and that hobby has grown into The Weaving Rainbow. Each craft presents its own unique skills and challenges and I love the ability to transition between the two. I am drawn to the calm repetitious movement of working on a loom and the simple elegance that can be achieved when knotting rope in various ways. Each craft lends itself to different textures and color combinations that I love experimenting with and combining to form something entirely original.
