Role: The Garmon Yarns Editorial Team

Specialism: Specialist in design, color theory, and loom techniques.

A specialist in colour theory and design across various fields with several decades of experience, he stumbled into the world of textile arts by chance, as a way to relax and unwind after intense, high-stress days. He experiments with different weaving techniques such as looms, crochet and knitting, as well as other craft techniques such as punch needle and macramé. Alberto is the driving force behind many of the design and product selection decisions at Garmon Yarns.
