Description

Students will have the opportunity to weave a scarf and some samples in an 8-harness turned twill pattern. This class will be a good refresher for planning your project, measuring your warp and setting up your loom

Students are responsible for purchasing their own Tencel yarn (or equivalent), so we will have a planning session 4 weeks before weaving begins to discuss draft choices and color & design.

During class we will cover different treadling methods, tips for becoming friends with your loom, managing selvedges, designing at the loom, weaving and finishing your project, and more.

Prerequisites

Must have warped a floor loom before.

Materials to be provided by/additional instructions for students

Students will supply a minimum of 2 or 3 colors of 8/2 Tencel (preferred) or 8/2 bamboo or cotton.
This project will be woven on the 8-shaft looms and warping equipment provided by the guild.

Please bring a lunch or snack if you would like. Access to a refrigerator and microwave are available in the building.

Materials/Equipment Provided by Triangle Weavers
