Alongside her studio practice, Cassandra developed the Oxford Frame Loom as a way of making her distinctive approach to weaving more accessible, and through her teaching she encourages others to look beyond decoration and engage more deeply with the possibilities of yarn, texture and process. Her work reflects a commitment to slow making, sustainability and a contemporary approach to traditional craftsmanship.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"992\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvent Description\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCassandra will lead a small-group workshop introducing her material-led approach to weaving on the Oxford Frame Loom.

Throughout the workshop, Cassandra will share insights from her own design practice, showing how the same principles can be applied to both interior textiles and more sculptural work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"994\" data-end=\"1931\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(64, 64, 64);\"\u003eBy the end of the session, each participant will leave with a woven sample of their own and a digital guide to support further exploration at home.
