Mahi Raranga - NZ Flax Weaving - the old art of creating taonga (treasures) with our NZ native fibres such as NZ Flax, Pingao, Kiekie and others. We create kete, pikau (backpack), wall art, and, of course, piupiu, but many things in between and above these. All other details about us can be found on our website (www.flaxworx.co.nz). We also use non-native fibres and artificial materials in our art

, such as Kamihimo Craft Paper. Check out our online shop on our website (www.flaxworx.co.nz) for a range of dyes, tools, and woven taonga for sale, as well as much more. If you like our content, maybe buy us a coffee - we'd appreciate it:-) buymeacoffee.com/intrepidweaver

Congratulations to all finalists (what a line up!), but especially, of course, to Rei Music (since he is such a great supporter and ambassador for Mahi Raranga, wearing one of our custom-made piupiu) :-)

We feel very proud each time we see it in the videos or photos.

Best of luck!!!

πŸ™Œ To the mystery caller who left us a message but no name or number... we see you! πŸ˜…

Yes β€” we DO still have TWO of these gorgeous 28" x 13" (small boy's size) piupiu in stock! All the details and how to grab one are on our online shop only, right here: www.flaxworx.co.nz

But heads up β€” we only have these two, and once they're gone, they're gone! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’¨

Shop update: Plenty of dye is back in stock, and the ever-popular Kamihimo Craft Paper has made its return too! πŸ“¦ A huge shout-out to lovely Geoff, who's holding down the fort with all the packing and posting β€” give him some love too! πŸ™Œ

One more thing: I'm currently overseas, so please don't try calling my mobile! Most of the time it's the middle of the night here, and every missed call triggers a $10 "you missed a call" text from One NZ (yes, I know, thanks for reminding me 😩).

Please email me instead if you need to get in touch β€” it's the fastest way to reach me! πŸ’Œ

Impressions from the 6th World Wicker & Weaving Festival in Nowy TomyΕ›l, Poland.

Ann Uerata and I are taking part in the international competition with participants from 66 other countries.

Today, the town itself hosted a big parade right through the city for us. Very impressive.

More to come...
