Handwoven fabric

The warps of these handwoven fabrics, made from wool and linen threads, are dyed with a gradient following the ikat technique. When washed, the woven fabric changes: woollen yarn shrinks while linen does not. The result is a three-dimensional surface. Merle Suurkask drew inspiration for these fabrics from the first frosty mornings in October, with little light, no leaves, but branches and pure white delicate ice.
