GRC X LOOMLAB Collaboration

We were so excited to work together with our friends at Grassroots California to collaborate on a scarf. State trees from 16 states are woven into this wool / cotton scarf. Can you guess which ones? We've only made a limited number, so make sure to pick up yours while they last!  Shop it here.

Cryptographer & Encoded Textiles

Wish we thought of this!  What a fabulous experiment in textiles... create a scarf with a personalized text message. "A personal message is more and more often sent digitally. Intangible, floating in the air, only readable on a screen. The Cryptographer generates pattern by translating words to a code. Bleached into fabric the message becomes tangible. Invisible words, with a physical impact. Controlled by text messaging each character is transformed into a specified icon, resulting in ever changing patterns, depending on the users input." via rawcolor.nl
