Continue building your skills on a rigid heddle loom with plenty of technical assistance and design guidance along the way. Each Creative Weaving Workshop will begin with a quick refresh of weaving techniques before introducing a new technique to practice, explore, and add to your weaving toolbox.This workshop is an introduction to using a pick-up stick to create patterns. Whether you are interested in weaving samples just to practice, creating another mug rug, trying a new color palette, or designing a wall-hanging to decorate your home--this is a great opportunity to use 577’s looms to further your weaving skills—or to unwind and enjoy the weaving process for relaxation.
A variety of different yarns will be available for you to get creative with, and looms will be pre-warped. Participants will weave a project of their choice.
Prerequisite: This class is designed for those with prior weaving experience. Participants must have successfully completed 577’s Learn to Weave class.
Class Note: You will work on pre-warped looms 5” in width and be able to weave up to 12” in length. All projects must be cut off loom 15 minutes before the end of the session to allow for cleanup. This class does not include individual instruction on dressing the loom or other techniques not covered in demo or Learn to Weave prerequisite class.
