This weaving class is designed for those who have threaded a 4-harness loom, can follow a draft, and weave independently.

TOOLIN' AROUND WITH DOUBLE WEAVE

April 25-26 (Sat.-Sun.) 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. 2 days

Double weave is a handy technique to know to create double wide fabric. It is also a useful technique for making pockets and tubes in fabric. We will wind the warp and you will learn how to sley and thread the loom for douible weave using 3/2 Perle cotton. Learn how to identify two layers of warp and weft and how to shift the layers to create open-and closed-sided pockets to hold your shuttles, pick-up sticks, and other tools you want to hang right next to your loom. You will need 4 colors of 3/2 Perle cotton to use in the warp and weft. Project yarn not included. By Katie Werner.

No refunds/credit for cancelations after April 10 unless we find a replacement for you.

Please purchase your project yarn by April 10 since we are winding the warp. You can order it online. Just be sure to include a message that we should hold the yarn at the store to pick up during class. We will remove the shipping and apply the class discount.
