This Spring we cast our eye over the world of hats and the thinking behind sculptural design. Travelling to Venice, we discover a world of textile treasures. Further afield we explore the myriad histories and people behind indigo. All in all we cross continents, processes and skills leading to an issue beyond all scale and proportion.

Visit product page →Join us as we travel to the Karoo in South Africa and meet the extraordinary Adele Cutten, (founder of Adele's Mohair), and her dedicated staff of more than 70 knitters and spinners. Her road to success was more than just bumpy, it would have been impossible for most.
We also visit with Andries Pienaar, the youngest person to receive South Africa's Farmer of the Year Award. His family has been raising prize-winning Merinos since the 1880s on 12,000 hectares in Colesberg, not farm from the famous Kimberly Diamond Mine, which has a surprising connection to farming.
Tintsaba, Swaziland's sisal basket-weaving company founded in 1983, creates more than sensationally designed baskets, it also promotes an attitude of health and empowerment among its more than 700 female employees, thanks to the vision of its beloved founder, Sheila Freemantle.
For everyone who has ever dreamed about retiring and becoming a farmer, or, moving to an island, Wanatha Garner has done both. Her flock of Merinos is benefitting the community in ways she never could never have imagined, thanks to a special collaboration with Swans Island Blankets.
The civil war that decimated Guatemala for nearly four decades will never be forgotten, certainly not by a special group of widows who weave beautiful ikat shawls and conduct lessons for novice (!) tourists with assistance from Maya Traditions.
With 128-pages filled with stunning photos and extraordinary stories, we hope you will enjoy this reading this issue of Wild Fibers as much as we enjoyed creating it.
