Instructor bio: I can’t remember not working with fibers. I began by teaching myself to knit in sixth grade. I was exposed to weaving in 8th grade when I went to camp. In high school we had a fabulous arts program where I learned to spin and really learned about weaving. From there I followed my dreams and started creating on my own. I am primarily self-taught, which gave me the freedom to experiment with colors and techniques. I began dyeing wools for my own sweaters around 1978 and ran with it over the years. There are so many different techniques using fiber and dyes that I could do only that for my entire life.
"I will usually plan my project first and then create the dye technique to accomplish what I envision. Experimentation is the key to growth and continued color play makes me happy." -- Christine Schneider
