Weaving Indiana is a weaving guild devoted to learning and sharing knowledge about the art and craft of handweaving. We have monthly meetings, yearly workshops and guild projects to encourage all members to excel in their chosen craft. We welcome anyone to our meetings, especially the ones coming up. Contact us if you would like to join a meeting via Zoom.
February 21, 2026: Living Blue – Traditional Japanese Indigo Dyeing and Weaving by Roland and Chinami Ricketts
10 a.m. to noon Chinami and Rowland Ricketts work together to grow and process the indigo that colors their work using historical Japanese techniques. In this presentation, Chinami and Rowland will share the process that leads from seed to dye before each discussing their individual work: Chinami’s kasuri (ikat) weaving and Rowland’s immersive installations. Chinami will bring some samples of her work, and I’ll bring some samples of dried indigo leaves and composted indigo. This meeting takes place in person at our regular meeting location.
