Beginning Weaving Week

Our Beginning Weaving class starts each student on a prewarped loom so that
they can become familiar with the different parts of the loom and how it
works. Each student begins by weaving cotton towels and then a patterned
sampler so that they understand how to read a pattern draft. Warping
experience comes in the middle of the week after the student becomes
accustomed to the looms. Each student is guided through the process of
calculating the material requirements for a scarf project, and then proceeds
to warp a loom for their own scarf. A variety of projects is accomplished,
giving the student an exposure to various types of weaving as well as
finishing techniques. Materials are provided with the exception of the
scarf.

The course is designed for a person who has already taken a basic weaving class, but has problems when it comes time to warp the loom. Warping the loom is not as difficult as it sometimes seems, and we'll let you in on our secrets and short cuts in this week of warping fun. The class will cover warp planning, choice of threads, setts and treadling. Students average 4 projects in 5 days, using a variety of yarns and weave structures.
