Algebraic Expressions in Handwoven Textiles

Presented by: Sally Orgen

Learn about Ada Dietz and her 1952 monograph Algebraic Expressions in Handwoven Textiles. Designed for weaver who are not mathematically gifted. Attendees will examine how Dietz’s method can be applied to any weaving structure. This seminar will explain her unique naming convention and display samples woven in 2022 by Cross Country Weavers. Attendees will be encouraged (and guided) in designing their patterns using Ada’s methods with the time remaining. No calculators are needed, and proficiency in algebra is not required.
