Workshop: Ondulé- Weaving Waves at Penland School of Craft


  • Penland School of Craft Penland, NC USA (map)

The fan reed, or ondulé reed is a unique tool for the hand loom that is growing in awareness and popularity, while still being rather illusive as a technique. Amy Putansu has dedicated many years to this practice and will share her own methods for achieving curves, waves, and undulations in woven threads. Students will gain extensive hands-on experience learning the ondulé weaving method on traditional floor looms in terms of maneuvering the tools and equipment to achieve this special cloth. FMI Here.
