About the Artist

My name is Kallia Walkowiak, I’m 27 years old and I’ve been a fiber artist in one form or another for about 8 of those. I learned to weave from a local class several years ago, and it felt like coming home. I’ve incorporated weaving into my life as much as possible ever since. I find the steps meditative and it’s a great way to feel a connection to fiber history. I dove into teaching this craft as soon as I was able. I have a massive passion for both the individual process of weaving, as well as the insight it gives into what goes into making the textiles we take for granted in our everyday lives. I like to say that none of the steps of weaving are hard on their own, there’s just a lot of them. I know the process of getting started weaving can feel intimidating to new weavers, so I strive to keep the classes a relaxed and welcoming environment to people of all skill levels and learning styles. I want to give space for people to feel comfortable learning (and making mistakes!) in my classes. We’re here to explore a beautiful craft, not stress ourselves out worrying over perfection in a new art form.
