Saori weaving

 Not to stick to the norm, if there really is such a thing as normal. But weaving in different forms has always held an interest with me and have been drawn to freeform or should I say Art weaving. Not one for following the rule book, more like having a glance at it & then throwing it out the window.
After surfing the web, Pinterest & social media, I made the amazing discovery of SAORI weaving. Now I am totally addicted to this wonderful style of freeform weaving with no boundaries and truly open to all abilities, even me!
This is leading me on an amazing adventure of colour texture and not to mention an online-community that spans the globe. Wonderful talented creative people, who are willing to share their work, skills and experience. They do not teach but guide you on a path to find your inner weaver, which for me has a Zen. Magical.
These are my first steps into Saori Weaving.
