Sandrine's workshop, @creasognu, is in the mountains of Boziu. In Alandu, the village of Sambucucciu le révolté, she found inspiration, serenity and, above all, the beloved estru paisanu.
Our Sandrine is also an excellent traditional weaver. On her "tilaghju", she multiplies the stitches and wefts and we are already thinking about versions of woven chestnuts.
To make our Castagnina rugs, large or small, Sandrine uses tufting, a technique that enables her to continuously insert different yarns into a jute canvas. All with her gun! The name tufting comes from the English word "tuft", and the little tufts of wool produced in this way are very soft indeed!
Tufting is often considered a recent technique, but it is inspired by older craft techniques.
