A guide to incorporating natural materials and fostering experimentation in woven projects.

In Wild Weave, textile artist Alice Fox encourages an open-minded and playful approach to creating beautiful and innovative woven artworks. Fox promotes the idea of engaging with simple tools and technology, as well as making use of locally sourced and unconventional materials, all of which can produce exciting results.

In this book, packed full of introductory information, Fox covers everything from the historical background of weaving to how weaving crosses boundaries among textiles, basketry, art, and craft. She includes an introduction to frames, heddles, and other simple tools, explaining how you can use the most basic equipment including found, homemade, and repurposed structures.

Chock-full of practical advice and beautiful photography of the artist's own work, Wild Weave covers:
- Sourcing materials and an introduction to equipment. - Weaving on frames, in the round, three-dimensionally, and ephemerally. - Examples of weave-based ideas for recording landscape and "spirit of place." - Techniques for working with alternative materials, which may be rigid or fragile.

This book is ideal for anyone wanting to develop their textile art practice, or for newcomers seeking inspiration without the requirements of expensive tools or materials.

Alice Fox is an embroiderer and textile artist using techniques from textiles, soft basketry and printmaking. She uses found objects, gathered materials and natural processes, bringing different materials together to form tactile surfaces and structures. Most of the materials Alice uses are grown or gathered on her allotment plot. Alice is based in Saltaire, West Yorkshire and she exhibits and teaches nationally and internationally.
