Behind the Fiber
Inside the Studio
A real look at how KAT functional fiber art moves from sketch lines and color notes to tufted texture, carving, and finish.
Where the idea gets texture.

What I’m making right now.
This section changes as the frame changes—new experiments, commissions, color studies, and pieces in progress.
It Starts With an Idea
Before the yarn, there’s a plan.
Some pieces begin as hand-drawn linework, some are mapped digitally, and some are transferred directly to the frame. This is where size, shape, color, and balance get worked out.
Sketch it. Map it. Make it.
From Linework to Fiber
Watch the piece take shape.
The outline is only the beginning. Color gets built section by section, then each piece is carved and finished until the texture feels right.
At Work
The making is part of the art.
Drawing, tufting, changing yarn, carving, trimming, gluing, and backing—each step is done by hand in the KAT studio.
Made by hand. Finished on purpose.
The Details Matter
Texture lives in the little things.
Clean edges, small color changes, lettering, earrings, line direction, and finish work are what give each piece its own character.
Big Art, Small Details
The same process, just mini.
Keychains, purse charms, and smaller fiber pieces are tufted individually too. Tiny scale does not mean tiny effort.
