KATHY WILLIAMS

weaver / gwehydd

Kathy was first introduced to Spinning, Weaving & Dyeing in the late 70's. She holds the Bradford Diploma in handloom weaving. Working mainly to commission her large tapestry woven rugs lend themselves beautifully to the geometric style, which Kathy favours. She was initially inspired by the North American Indians and has been there several times to research their work.
Kathy lives on a large working farm in the Vale of Glamorgan and has her studio there. When Kathy is between rugs she likes to ring the changes by weaving super soft scarves in luxurious cashmere yarn. Her scarves are much sought after and clients come back time and again for them.

Mae'n gweithio yn bennaf i gomisiwn ac mae ei rygiau mawr wedi'u gwehyddu â llaw yn cynnig eu hunain yn hyfryd i arddull geometrig. Cafodd ei hysbrydoli yn y gyntaf gan Indiaid Gogledd America ac ers hyn mae wedi ymweld ag America sawl gwaith i wneud ymchwil eu gwaith.
Mae Kathy yn byw ar fferm fawr ym Mro Morgannwg ble mae ganddi stiwdio. Mae’n gwehyddu sgarffiau meddal gydag edau cashmir moethus yn eu hamser sbâr o’r rygiau. Mae galw mawr am ei sgarffiau ac mae cleientiaid yn dod nôl tro ar ôl tro ar eu cyfer.
