About the Item
Karin Carlander, 2023 Green Shuttle Rug For Karakter
Weaver and textile artist Karin Carlander interprets classic techniques as the backbone of her creative process. For the Shuttle rug, Carlander decided upon paper yarn because of its crisp and delicate expression. Although challenging to work with, the inflexible plant-based material has its own personality and can withstand being dyed in colours. Carlander utilises the paper yarn’s resilience by dying it in hues that bring attention to its unique texture.

THE DANISH WEAVER AND TEXTILE ARTIST STRIVES FOR THE SUBLIME WHILE ENHANCING THE EVERYDAY.
“Creating a rug in paper yarn is a bit mad. It is a crisp and delicate material that is infamously difficult to tame both by hand and machine.” While designing the rug was straight-forward, finding someone who could make it the way it is intended to be, was not. The journey took them from Nepal to Finland, a mere hundreds of metres from where the yarn is produced and dyed.
“Finding those people enables you to get to the core of things much quicker. It is about craft and tacit knowledge, not engineering,” she explains. The Shuttle Rug combines her know-how of colour and material with an innate understanding of movement and rhythm. The pattern vibrates, moves. (Carlander leans on classical music terms to explain her textiles, a language introduced by her husband, a Finnish musician, as a way of putting words around her practice.)
At the same time, the rug feels connected to the Japanese tatami, as natural to sit on as stand on. You want to get close. That has to do with the honesty of Carlander’s work. If you follow the thread, you are able to understand the way it is constructed. It is a gesture, an invitation to the beholder.

About the Design:
Weaver and textile artist Karin Carlander interprets classic techniques as the backbone of her creative process. Two new designs – a rectangular rug woven from paper yarn and a fringed throw in alpaca wool – showcase this craftsmanship in contemporary pieces for the home. When it came to the Heddles throw, Carlander selected alpaca wool from the Andes mountains. These thin, glossy fibers were woven into a luxurious blanket that features a subtle ridged design. Along the throw’s edge, a delicate fringe invites a closer look at the construction process, which sees the loom’s warp and weft working together. “This analogue way of creating is a collaboration between my loom and the material,” says Carlander. “The way threads and colours perform is new and unexpected with each material. Even after so many years, the craft continues to surprise me.”
