Shetland Tweed talk

I have been selected to present a paper at this year’s symposium of CTANZ, the Costume and Textile Association of New Zealand.

The symposium is in Whangārei at the end of August and this year the theme is Social Fabric, Interconnectedness: Patterns and Diversity. The paper I shall present is about the history and heritage of Shetland Tweed, the subject of my Master of Research degree from Glasgow School of Art. I am looking forward to sharing some of the stories about the islands and their unique fabric, and will add the talk to the blog once the symposium is over.
