WEAVEthe artist residency is a 12-week long remote residency that aims to support weavers and fiber enthusiasts who engage in community-based fiber practices. Each participant will receive a $1,500.00 cash stipend to use with no restrictions, and a $1,500.00 materials budget to shop for materials on the Gist Yarn website.
We are pleased to announce the artist's selected for our WEAVE Artist Residency cycle in 2022. Melvenea Hodges, Kesiena Onosigho, Sobia Ahmad, and adé Oh.
As part of our ongoing series of blog posts by tapestry weavers, we asked artist Miriam Vergara to walk us through their process of creating an autobiographical tapestry weaving with our Array wool.
It brings us so much joy to see all of the projects shared under the #gistyarn hashtag on Instagram. Today we are featuring three projects that caught our eye recently, each incorporating Mallo.
This week we are diving into a solution for one of the questions we get asked most often - if I weave with this mix of colors, will they look good together? We try our best to give advice, but the truth is that the design process plays a big part in determining whether beautiful, bright colors weave up into the bold piece you are dreaming of, or a flat dull pattern.
