Woolgathering

A collection of local wool and linsey woolsey blankets by Peggy Hart.  This new collection includes variations on traditional linsey woolsey fabrics. In the early days of settlement in New England, a scarcity of wool was made to go further by weaving it with linen in the warp, hence the name “linsey woolsey”. I gather wool and weave blankets in a barn full of antique industrial looms. These looms give me the ability to weave more unusual, intricate patterns but with the flexibility to change patterns and colors in the loom as a handweaver would.
