Cally Booker is a handweaver based in Dundee and much of her inspiration is drawn from the city: from the grandeur of its waterfront setting to the details of quirky buildings and everyday living. In her handwoven collections she makes extensive use of multi-layered weaves using vibrant, naturally dyed and organic yarns. The interplay of different layers of colour gives her work its distinctive appeal. Through experimentation with data and digital tools, Cally is using weave both to tell stories and to celebrate the structure of the cloth itself.

For curious handweavers who aren’t satisfied with following patterns, Weaving Space offers online resources and tuition to help them develop a deeper understanding of weave structure and design, so that they can bring their own creative vision to life.
