I am a widow, mother of 4 and currently a grandmother of seven.

I have been weaving for over 20 years. Most of what I have learned has been through trial and error. I have never had any formal training, just a love for weaving with harakeke.

There are so many things you can do with harakeke which makes this fibre so amazing.
