Pam Howard was influenced by fiber at an early age by her mother, a Home Economics teacher, who taught her to sew, knit, crochet and weave. In the mid-1980's, Pam bought her first floor loom and has focused on weaving and fiber arts ever since, including, at one time, having a spinner's flock of sheep. Pam has taught and presented weaving programs around the southeast. She is a former staff member of Shuttle, Spindle & Dyepot magazine. In 1999, Pam became the Resident Weaver at the John C. Campbell Folk School where she also teaches weaving. Pam is a member of the Handweavers’ Guild of America, Norwegian Textile Group, Complex Weavers, and the Southern Highland Craft Guild. She has also traveled to Denmark and studied Scandinavian weaving, culture and history.
