This is a 2-part class on Saturday 2/11 and Sunday 2/12 from 1:00 to 3:00 pm each day.
You’ll learn to weave on a floor or tabletop loom that has already been dressed (ready for weaving) for each student.  This introduction allows the student to focus on what it feels like and what is created when you take a shuttle in hand and weave.  It is a great class to try out weaving or for determining whether you want to further explore hand weaving. After the second session, you will take home a finished hand-woven piece. Choice of loom is determined by order of registration date.
This is a beginner class with no prerequisites.
