Learn to set up and weave on a rigid heddle loom on this one day beginner weaving workshop.
Rigid heddle looms are affordable, great fun and relatively fast to master, and offer a huge range of possibilities once you understand the basics.
I will provide a range of yarns and you can also bring your own, or upgrade to my high welfare yarns from the HoneyWoods Flock for an additional cost.
We will talk about
- How to choose the right yarns for your project
- How to warp up the loom
- How to weave using different kinds of yarn for different effects
- Ways to create texture and design
- Options for finishing your cloth, including tassels
- Opportunity to visit the HoneyWoods Flock and learn about their care
Workshops are 10am to 4pm with a break for lunch.
One on one tuition or group workshops of up to four people are available.
All tools and equipment, yarns, and tea/coffee are included.
