Description

Traditional loom weaving is the antithesis of fast fashion production. All elements of the textile, from the creating the threads to the set up of the loom, is done by hand - it is a true skill to master. One of the first things you notice in a traditional loom workshop is the noise. It's a heavy clacking sound coming from the weavers as they use pedals to move the threads on the wooden frames. The looms are entirely human-powered, which is a rare sight in this day and age. It was especially interesting to see how textiles are engineered from scratch. How textiles are made has largely been overlooked in recent times, since the norm is to buy the finished product, and never know where, or even how it was made. Going back to basics in a family run
