Learning how to weave is very easy and rewarding! You will be addicted in no time!
In this workshop, we will learn the basics of weaving including how to warp a loom, how to weave with a needle and shuttle, and how to use different kinds of yarn. Using an 8.5" X 11" pop out loom and simple weaving tools, you will apply these skills by making your first woven tapestry! Each finished tapestry will measure around 8" X 10.5". We will learn some fancy weaving techniques like Rya (aka tassels) and Soumak- a decorative braid embellishment. By the end of class, you will have a completed woven tapestry and the knowledge and skills to learn more! You will also receive a class handout that includes weaving instructions, resources, and locations to find loom and weaving supplies.
This online workshop takes place on Thursday 8/27 from 5-7 PM PST via Zoom Meeting. You will receive login instructions prior to the workshop.
