Learn to weave on a Tapestry Loom!
Have you always been intrigued by beautiful handwoven textiles, wanted to understand how they were made, and maybe learn this ancient craft? Then this is a class for you. In this 3-day workshop (over three weeks), you will be introduced to the age-old practice of weaving and discover the rewarding aspect of creating objects for useful or decorative purpose. Weaving can also be a meditative parenthesis in our fast-paced world. You will learn the basic weaving techniques needed to set you on your weaver’s journey such as:
– How to warp a tapestry loom
– Plain tapestry weave (single and double weft tapestry)
– Weft interlock and slit weave
– Weft-faced color blending
– Turkish knots (if we have sufficient time).We will weave a sampler and a final project representing different learned techniques.
Students will work on a vertical tapestry loom which can be taken home each week to practice and work on the project assigned. A variety of yarn will be available. Students are welcome to bring their own yarn, as well as a heavy metal fork to use as beater to pack the weft threads down.
A security deposit of $50 will be required at the beginning of the class for the loan of the loom during the duration of the class. This workshop is appropriate for ages 12+ years old
• Military and sibling discounts.
• Scholarships available.
• Homeschool funds accepted.
