Analia Restropo, a professional weaver will conduct a one hour weaving
workshop for children in the age group of 4 to 7 years Studio (Nizamuddin
west). This will be her last session for sometime as she is moving back to
Italy, Though we really hope to see her back at the studio this year!

Analia will be guiding boys and girls on the discovery of their own
creativity through weaving techniques with a number of unusual
materials.Children will be creating a hand weaved craft using only their
hands (as opposed to the traditional loom) to transform materials through
weaving techniques into objects in a fantastic and creative way.

Weaving is a process of interlacing stripes of paper or cloth, strands of
yarn, wood sticks, plastic straws, or any simple material that you can find
at home to create an object which can be complemented by artistic techniques
as painting, papier mache and many others.

Analia, is a professional weaver and textile designer, has been teaching
modern and traditional weaving techniques in Italy, and currently she is
developing a unique collection of handbags, furnishing accessories and
jewellery, entirely handmade from either knitted, crocheted, woven or simply
plaited, twisted or knotted neoprene yarn, pvc and other types of industrial
plastic materials used extensively in the plumbing, car and motorcycle
industries.
