For those who have ever been interested in, or wanted to try weaving on a floor loom, this workshop is for you. It is absolute beginner-level, no previous experience necessary. Students will begin by learning the lingo and taking a tour of the tools and equipment involved in weaving. Emphasis will be placed on preparing materials and setting up the loom: the most labor-intensive part of the process. And then the fun begins- students will weave a set of sample fabrics to wet-finish and compile into a swatch book. This class is also perfect for those who want to graduate from rigid heddle weaving to the four-shaft floor loom. Students will learn the back-to-front warping method, and weave a variety of basic structures such as plain weave, twills, and basket weave in colors of their choice. This workshop will prepare students to plan a woven project, dress a loom, and weave a simple fabric of their own design.
