Sept 1 – Cecelia Campochiaro Visits the Guild Virtually!

July 30, 2020

Cecelia Campochiaro

About Cecelia Campochiaro

NOTE – LINK TO REGISTER FOR THE SEPT ZOOM MTG IS ONLY IN YOUR EMAIL COPY OF THE NEWS BLAST!

Cecelia Campochiaro appeared on the knitting scene in 2015 with her debut book, Sequence Knitting. Knitting was a casual pastime until she had an ah-ha moment in 2010 and realized that interesting textured fabrics could be created by the simple repetition of a sequence of stitches. This idea evolved and led to her writing Sequence Knitting, which is a reference book about this mindful approach to knitting. 

In the years since Sequence Knitting debuted, she has continued to develop new ideas in knitting. Sequence Knitting is about texture, and her new book, Making Marls, is about color. Making marls, the act of working multiple strands together as one, is an old technique, but has rarely been written about as an important technique in handknitting.

She lives in Silicon Valley, where for many years she developed specialized microscopes used in computer chip manufacturing. Textiles, photography and the arts have been a lifelong passion running in parallel with her technical life. In high school and college even though her main studies were in the sciences, she studied drawing, printmaking, ceramics, and photography. Today she is fully dedicated to the fiber world and “unventing” new ways to make amazing knit fabrics. Cecelia has a website where you can learn more about her activities.

New! Master Workshop – Exploring Marls and Color 
A three-part, virtual workshop on September 8 and 11.  Advance registration is required, includes a materials fee, and is limited to 18 participants. You are signing up for three, 1 1/2 hour sessions – a total of 4 1/2 hours of instruction and a free cowl pattern – a bargain for $65 plus a $10 materials fee. Details on the workshop and how to register can be found here.

Learn more about Cecelia’s planned presentation to the Guild here.
