Scarf-tastic Dream Weaves

Four seasons, countless ideas, and a wealth of imagination. Here, dream scarves from the loom become colourful stories told through yarn and time. As part of our contest, weavers have drawn inspiration from spring, summer, autumn, and winter, transforming their personal visions into expressive textiles.

Discover a diverse array of woven scarves, marvel at the materials, patterns, and craftsmanship, and cast a vote for your favourite piece. The winners will be chosen by you — our visitors — and ceremoniously announced at the finissage.

An exhibition to behold, experience, and help decide.
