Learn to Weave: Start to Finish – 2 day workshop
Always wanted to learn how to weave? This is the workshop for you! This 2 day workshop will take you through creating a weave start to finish. You will be guided through warping your loom, multiple weaving knots and texture techniques, and finishing off your weaving. We will take the weaving off the loom and attach it to a piece of driftwood or a wooden dowel. (Specialty woods may be available for an additional cost.) A fiber pack full of hand dyed & hand spun fibers will be provided in the colorway selected. Some examples of the fibers provided include wools, cotton, linen, art years, and wool roving! Please arrive on time as we will need to get started right away to finish our weavings within the time allotted for this workshop. Registration for this workshop is limited to 2 seats to accommodate any skill level making this the perfect class for beginners and intermediates alike! Please feel free to BYOB – Cups and a light snack will be provided. Happy Weaving!!
Three loom options are available:
1) LOOM PURCHASE: At the beginning of the class, you will have the option to purchase a loom kit for $70 (a $15 discount). This is a great option for those who want to take additional weaving classes, or practice weaving at home! The kit includes a small wooden frame loom, carrying bag, warp cord, shuttles, a needle, weaving comb, scissors, and a heddle bar.
2) LOOM RENTAL: A loom can be rented for $20 with a $70 deposit fee. This $70 deposit fee will be returned when the loom is returned in good condition at the end of the class.
3) BRING YOUR OWN LOOM: If you have your own table top loom, you are welcome to bring your own! Please check with me prior to the workshop date to confirm the loom will work for this workshop.
Due to limited seating, this workshop is non-refundable. Please contact me at earthknots@yahoo.com should an emergency warranting cancelation arise. We can always reschedule if need be.
