Hex Weave & Mad Weave: An Introduction to Triaxial Weaving
Elizabeth Lang Harris has been studying and teaching Mad Weave for almost a decade. She wrote a Learning Exchange article about mad weave in the Winter 2008 Shuttle, Spindle and Dyepot. She has also written Parallel Shadow Weave (with Erica Voolich) and From Weaving to Knitting, both from the Weavers' Guild of America. Elizabeth has won numerous awards for her teaching, as well as for her weaving, spinning, and paper arts. Charlene St. John has been weaving professionally for nearly 20 years. She was first exposed to, and enthralled by, triaxial weaving over 15 years ago while a member of the Orlando Weaver's Guild. Her attendance at a 2006 workshop on "Madweave," at her guild in Western North Carolina, finally provided the basic skills for executing triaxial weave. She has grown that basic skill-set into on-going in-depth study, production, and occasional tutoring of triaxial weaving.
