Portfolio > weave and resist

Many times I begin with the question: “what if?”
In my series of woven shibori discharge pieces I looked at different ways to employ that technique using the drawloom. What if I discharged certain areas? What if I use the drawloom to create the shibori pattern?What if I layer hand dyed areas, woven shibori discharge areas, and patterns created in the woven cloth?
I work within the constraints and requirements of the drawloom while at the same allowing for the unexpected to happen.
