Renowned weaver Esther Nitschke MBE has been spinning, weaving and teaching workshops for nearly 60 years. Her long history of awards and accolades include three woven garments held in the collection at Te Papa and in 1994 she was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire for her services to weaving.
On display in her Feilding studio will be a wide range of work as well as items of weaving memorabilia including her own personal sample books. Esther will be giving demonstrations for those interested and her much-loved hand woven linen/cotton tea towels, beautiful wool blankets and cushions will be available for purchase.
Everyone is welcome.
The studio will be open 10am – 4pm on the first Sunday of the month over summer, or by appointment.

The technical advancement of recycled yarn production has led to textiles which are not only more environmentally friendly, but emulate the soft handle of virgin fibres. In this article we explain the process of transforming post-consumer plastic bottles into recycled polyester yarn, through an investigation into the production of our first recycled product Kumo Recycled by James Dunlop.
Woven in 92% recycled polyester and 8% polyester yarn, Kumo Recycled presents a modern perspective on fibre construction. Available in 15 decorative shades, Kumo Recycled is suitable for those seeking a high-performance wide width sheer that is fire retardant and has a weighted selvedge in both residential and commercial applications, elegantly framing the view in any setting.
THE RECYCLING PROCESS:
At the recycling facility, post-consumer PET bottles are magnetically sorted by a metal detector and the labels are washed off with water in a revolving cylinder called a Tromel. The clean PET bottles are then sorted into types and colours by a near infrared ray and spectrum camera before being shredded into flakes underwater.
Separation occurs as lighter plastics float to the tank’s surface. The flakes are dried in a tumbler, then rinsed with sodium hydroxide, dried, rinsed in water, and dried once more. Residual contaminants and metals are then blown out and the flakes are shredded into smaller flakes, ready to be used to produce a liquid polymer (resin).
