Description

Explore handweaving, using fibers provided, for a woven sampler of different patterns. Join instructor Margaret B. Russell for a four-hour visit to the world of handweaving. The class offers the opportunity to weave several patterns on a loom that has already been dressed (ready for weaving) for each student. This introduction allows the focus to be on what it feels like and what is seen when you take a shuttle in hand and weave. It is a great class to just try out weaving or for determining whether you want to further explore handweaving. Use of a 4-shaft table loom and weaving tools, plus fibers for a woven sampler, are included in the cost. Bring a snack or lunch!
