The intermediate rigid heddle weaving classes ar designed for those who can independently thread a rigid heddle loom and follow a weaving draft. Many of these classes will require that you bring your own rigid heddle loom.

WEFT-FACED WEAVING TECHNIQUES

Stripes, pick-and-pick, hatching, and Soumak are techniques you will learn to create colorful designs and textures in a weft-faced fabric woven in plain weave. You will learn techniques that can be used in rugs, tapestries, placemats, or any item that calls for a dense fabric. In class, you will weave a small rug and weave at 24 ppi to ensure a dense and weft-faced fabric. Bring at least 2 colors of Sport weight yarn (1600 ypp) for the weft, but the more colors you bring, the more creative you can be. You can bring a pre-threaded rigid heddle loom or harness loom with either a 7.5- or 8-dent heddle/reed to class, but you may also rent one from us. By Bea Bonanno.

DOUBLE WEAVE ON THE RIGID HEDDLE LOOM

Don't feel constrained by the size of your rigid heddle loom. In this class you will learn to use two heddles to create double the width fabric on your rigid heddle loom. Handy for creating throws and shawls! You can bring any size rigid heddle loom to class, but it must be equipped for 2-heddle weaving. You will use two 7.5-or 8-dent heddles. Materials not included.
