Pre-Order Store Spotlight: WOLWEVERS

Get a first look at WOLWEVERS research into botanical dyes and what’s coming next with their regional production. What happens when a textile is made entirely within a local landscape? In this panel, WOLWEVERS Eva Klee and Pollyanna Moss are joined by Roua Alhalabi of Rouaatelier to share their journey to bring color into yarns made from the wool from the Kempisch Heideschaap by using local plant dye. They discuss possibilities and challenges of developing regional textile production rooted in local materials, traditional knowledge, and contemporary experimentation.
