Then this is a class for you. In this 3-day workshop (over three weeks), you will be introduced to the age-old practice of weaving and discover the rewarding aspect of creating objects for useful or decorative purpose. Weaving can also be a meditative parenthesis in our fast-paced world. You will learn the basic weaving techniques needed to set you on your weaver’s journey such as: - How to warp a tapestry loom - Plain tapestry weave (single and double weft tapestry) - Weft interlock and slit weave - Weft-faced color blending - Turkish knots (if we have sufficient time).We will weave a sampler and a final project representing different learned techniques. Students will work on a vertical tapestry loom which can be taken home each week to practice and work on the project assigned. A variety of yarn will be available. Students are welcome to bring their own yarn, as well as a heavy metal fork to use as beater to pack the weft threads down. A security deposit of $50 will be required at the beginning of the class for the loan of the loom during the duration of the class.
