Weaving Workshops
Floor Loom Weaving for Beginners & Beyond--$300 + materials*
This is a 3-day workshop designed for the beginning weaver or those needing a refresher class. You do not need to know anything about weaving or looms to be suitable for this "introduction to floor loom weaving" workshop.
In this class, students will:
- choose & plan an item to weave

- take the project off the loom
Examples of projects that can be woven in the 3-day workshop:
- 3 hand or dish towels
- 2 wool throw rugs
- 1 shawl/wrap

- 4 placemats
*The additional "material fee" depends on the yarn selected; usually $20-$30.
