One of the most prominent artworks in this Woodstock home designed architect Barry Price and interior design firm White Webb (@whitewebbinteriors) is a wall-spanning off-white textile piece by Toni Brogan, a New Zealand–born fiber artist fondly known in these parts as “the Catskill Kiwi.” At Brogan’s request, the homeowner asked her elderly mother, a skilled knitter and sewer, if she had any leftover spools to contribute to the work: “She got so excited and sent three huge boxes of yarn that she had been saving, probably since the ’50s—skinny little, fine Italian yarn, big and coarse yarn.” As the textile neared completion, the homeowner’s mother died, but the yarn and her memory is “knitted into our new house.” To see more of this colorful upstate escape, exclusive to elledecor.com, click the link in bio.
