BIO

 

My name is Flor, I am a chilean industrial designer, author and founder of Ullvuna.
Through my brand I have been inspiring and promoting creativity for 15 years, focusing
on Pin Loom Weaving, the portable way of weaving.


I design and develop all kinds of weaving kits, patterns, books, video classes,
subscriptions, coloring pages, etc. Most of them are produced on demand in the US
and sent worldwide.

 

I am the author of four Pin Loom Weaving books, the first one was translated to 7
languages, 100 Pin Loom Squares.

 

I have given several virtual and in-person lectures and classes to many weaving
platforms, associations and guilds, such as Stitches.events, Schacht Spindle, MAFA,
HGA, Illinois Prairie Weavers, shops and more.

 

Last year I exhibited my work in the US for the first time. I made an exhibition of all the
projects and patterns created for my last book Oversize Projects on a Pin Loom at
Schacht Spindle, in Boulder, Colorado, as a special guest.
