Distributing and crafting with sites of industry and re-making with recycled yarn, we can activate the narratives of place and belonging and the history and continued relevance of Park Royal. ![]() Some kits will have recycled yarn created from material waste from Park Royal businesses, for the weft. The materials are sustainable, and the kits include just enough yarn to create the warp threads. This type of ancient weaving technology is present in many cultures across the world (South America and South/ South East Asia, and Northern Scandinavian Sami cultures and Eastern Europe) and the rigid heddle adjustment means weaving is simple and easy to follow with minimal instruction, for all ages to get involved. They use low tech weaving technology, where the weaving looms can be rolled up and carried anywhere - weaving not tied to any one place. The looms are rigid heddle back strap looms, which are made of birch plywood and laser cut by local business Dot Laser. I created the Park Royal Loom, a small portable loom, as a way of distributing mobile sites of making to differing communities, to provide access to craft and to integrate the histories of industry with the slower pace of craft. It is also a site of Middle Eastern carpet weaving, textile restoration and histories of making. Park Royal is a centre of manufacturing, industry and distribution in London. ![]()
