q: is it that thing that you hang on the wall?
a: yes. that’s a type of weaving you can create, but there’s more to it than a quick find at your local home goods store. weavings can be wearable, placed between the pages of your favorite novel, or even used as a rug - you know, some off the wall stuff. now that you have a general
understanding of a few projects you can make and if you are a true beginner interested in getting the chillest introduction to my favorite craft, join me for this beginner circular weaving workshop.
students will learn:
• how to set-up and use a circular loom, including the importance of tension
• three to four basic weaving techniques
• how to plan your first project, including experimenting with color and texture
• clean-up and finishing techniques
Supplies Provided: you get to take home all the supplies!
• floral craft ring
• weaving tools (shuttle and tapestry needle)
• enough yarn to finish your project at home
• canvas tote bag
a variety of yarns and roving will be provided but students should also consider bringing other
nonconventional materials (cut up fabric, ribbon, cotton rope, etc.) for a personal touch or exchange.
