We offer a variety of small, personal weaving classes. If you see a class that you would like to take but it is not
scheduled or at a time that you can’t come please email Robin to schedule a class.
Fall 2022: I started to offer virtual classes in 2021, but it seems difficult to offer the kind of class I like to present.
The exception is our Wednesday Weavers—Zoom is great for that! And we throw in a few in-person activities as well.
Learn to Weave - Floor Loom
Learn to Weave - Floor Loom
Learn all the steps of weaving in a two-day class! You will learn how to plan a weaving project, prepare the warp, thread the loom, and weave plain weave and twill variations. You will learn to read weaving drafts and make color and threading decisions. After you finish this class you will understand enough weaving terminology to follow project instructions in the popular weaving magazines or to design your own pieces. Even if you have done a bit of weaving you will find this class helpful to reinforce your warping skills and learn efficient weaving techniques.
You will weave with cotton or wool yarn using 4-shaft floor looms and finish the two days with a 2-1/2 yard sampler (that you may choose to use as a table runner or scarf).
