An Introduction to loom woven textiles
Description
This 8 week weaving course will be a great introduction to pattern weaving on a table loom.
I am currently offering an online version of the weaving course which will be live and interactive online - via Zoom.
We use both Rigid Heddle and traditional 4 shaft looms to experiment with a range of woven patterns.
Exploring a variety of different loom threading orders, you can weave Twill, Tabby, Basket and houndstooth, and make a range of sample fabrics in checks, stripes and diamond patterns.
This course will also cover all the basics of reading a pattern draft and the principles of creating a balanced cloth.
Classes are suited to small groups, so early booking is recommended.
Various time slots for you to complete your course can be booked by prior agreement.
Evening, daytime and weekend dates are available.
Cancellation and a full refund can be obtained up to 8 weeks before the course starts. Start dates may be amended on request.
What's included in the price?
For in person workshops all equipment and materials are provided along with light refreshments, tea/coffee and biscuits.
Online workshop attendees will be sent a materials list prior to the course start date and you will need to have access to your own loom, unless you live in Hertfordshire as I have some Ashford Rigid Heddle looms available for hire during the course.
