Patricia

 

My name is Patri, I was born Santiago del Estero, I am the daughter of artisans and the granddaughter of teleras, I learned to crochet at the age of 8 and at the age of 16 I began to weave on creole loom, in those years I also learned to make different handicrafts.

At 19 I started organizing fairs for artisans and entrepreneurs, it was a beautiful stage where I learned a lot, mainly from the perspective of other artisans.

Today I am 44 years old and I am still working on creole loom and table looms, I always use traditional techniques with sheep's wool threads and I take great care of the handicraft creation process in all the details of my rugs.

For all my works I use natural dyes from herbs, roots or minerals and in some colors I use flowers, for mordant I use jume bleach so that it lasts and holds the color forever.

I hope my works decorate your houses, it would be a dream for me.
