"This analogue way of creating is a collaboration between my loom and the material. The way threads and colors perform is new and unexpected with each material. Even after so many years, the craft continues to surprise me." - Karin Carlander

Weaver and textile artist Karin Carlander interprets classic techniques as the backbone of her creative process. Her new design, a fringed throw in alpaca wool, showcases this craftsmanship in contemporary pieces for the home. When it came to the Heddles throw, Carlander selected alpaca wool from the Andes mountains. These thin, glossy fibers were woven into a luxurious blanket that features a subtle ridged design. Along the throw's edge, a delicate fringe invites a closer look at the construction process, which sees the loom's warp and weft working together.
