May 2017 – Inkle Weaving: Anne Dixon

Anne gave a most interesting and beautifully presented talk. She brought along a comprehensive collection of inkle weaving equipment, hundreds of examples of beautifully patterned inkle weaving, plus craft items made from inkle ‘braids’. She prefaced her talk with a fascinating history of the weaving of inkles, tapes and ribands, highlighting the ways in which the weaving terms have become part of our modern language. There are some great pictures on our facebook page.
