Beginners Rigid Heddle Weaving - Morning or Afternoon

Description

Learn to weave on a rigid heddle loom - beginners. Three hour workshop learning hand weaving, in a peaceful weaving workshop, on a small holding in the beautiful Welsh hills. Before weaving on a loom, it first has to be set up and threaded with the warp threads (these are the vertical threads on the loom that you will be weaving across with the horizontal weft threads). The loom will already have the warp threads on it, ready for you to thread the heddles, and then move straight into the fun of weaving your piece. You can choose to make a table mat, or a wall hanging. (If you would like to learn how to make a warp for the loom, please see the longer weekend weaving options (Weave A Shawl Weekend). If you would like to upgrade to fancier yarns, or hand spun yarns, please message me to enquire when booking and I can arrange a selection of yarns for you, or hand dye, or spin yarns and art yarns for you. Choose from a morning session (10am - 1pm), or an afternoon session (2pm - 5pm). If you would prefer to learn how to warp rigid heddle looms during the workshop, please choose the full day workshop listing. The workshop may have others attending, or might be just yourself. If you would prefer a one to one session please message me. If you are travelling to get here, there is a farm cottage and a cabin on site that may be available for you to book.
