Introduction to Weaving

Are you intrigued by the patterns, textures, and colours you see in all woven cloth? Have you ever watched the magic as a design comes alive on a loom? This weaving class will introduce you to this ancient craft and give you the ability to weave a decorative which reflects the weaver’s imaginative creativity. The possibilities are endless.

In this class, Geraldine will show and demonstrate different looms, such as the peg, inkle and frame looms. The student will design and weave a small piece on a frame tapestry loom. You will take your loom home to work on your piece and the following week, return to class to finish it. This class will teach the potential weaver the basics and prepare them to advance to a rigid heddle and shaft loom.

All materials are provided for the students. You are welcome to bring some wool or yarns that you like and would like to incorporate into your piece.
