About Katarzyna Stasinska: I have graduated in 2015 from the University of Wroclaw with a BA in Archaeology, currently (in 2019) I am completing an MA in Artefact Studies on the University College London. My studies are deeply connected to my passion for natural dyeing and other fibre crafts and have allowed me to develop it further.
