This 3 day course is aimed those who have been on the beginners weaving course
or already have some experience of weaving on a shaft loom.
About this Event

The course will take you through the process of setting up a loom through to weaving a final outcome. You will learn how to design and make a warp and how to dress the loom. You will also select and input the weave structure you wish to use into the dobby. You will be rewarded for your hard work by weaving your own project at the end!

You will be in a small class, maximum 6 participants, giving plenty of opportunity to ask questions and receive 1 to 1 support and tailored tuition throughout the workshops as well as watching group demonstrations.

The course will take place from 10:00 to 16:00 for 3 days from 22nd November.

Material Cost - There is an additional £10 material charge per day.


Please note – some initial weaving knowledge is assumed. Dressing the loom requires some dexterity, however support is available should this be welcomed.

Things to bring

Yourselves, ideas , a packed lunch (there are also places to buy lunch in the mill and on Farsley Town Street.)

We will provide

Refreshments (drinks and cake!), some materials and equipment.
