ABOUT ANNIE-FRANCE
Thanks to the Internet, weaving made its way to Annie-France. Very organically. Almost as if she summoned it without even knowing a thing about it. It started appearing on her feed online and she felt the urge to give it a try. It didn’t take long for her to be completely smitten. Shortly after, WOVVVEN was born in March 2018. Annie-France has since created hundreds of pieces and yarns that have found a home around the world.
