Carol James

Carol James has been exploring low-tech textile methods for more than 30 years focusing on the low-tech highly transportable fingerweaving and sprang. To increase her knowledge she has examined items in collections across the US and Europe, and is known for her skill in replicating these historic textiles. She has also created modern garments deemed worthy of the Handweavers Guild of America fashion show. Carol has taught in Canada, the US, Europe, and New Zealand. Students describe her as patient, knowledgeable, and passionate. She spent her COVID time charting sprang lace designs and writing patterns, and is author of numerous articles, 4 books, and 2 instructional DVDs.
