January Meeting Program: Diane Totted Commenting on Crimp Cloth:
Dianne’s extensive exploration of a variation of handwoven shibori has opened up a whole new weaving world of possibilities. She calls the resulting fabric crimp cloth. With polyester being a key component of the technique, hear about the use of polyester vs. cotton and the sustainability of the fibers that account for more than 8O% of all fiber production worldwide. Through visual presentation, view the garments that flatter your figure, the shawls that won’t slide off your shoulders, and scarves that can serve a dual purpose. This is a technique that will inspire you to jump into your “stash” and start creating fun fabric.
