Angie Parker

Angie has been passionate about weaving krokbragd for over thirty years and teaches experienced weavers and beginners in person and online. She trained at Cumbria College of Art and Design and recently had her book, 'Krokbragd: Contemporary Weaving with Colour' published.

Describe your approach to teaching
The classes focus on learning to play with this niche weave technique. I aim to equip the students with the tools they need to find their own style.

What inspires your own work?
My weaving is inspired by the technique and the materials in the first instance. Colourful graffiti and travel also inform my designs.
