Starting in February 2020…….Small Group Weaving Classes at my Santa Monica Studio.
Get loads of design bang with relatively little weaving effort with this gorgeous color and weave effect scarf. Using 5 colors and a basic plain weave structure, an almost infinite number of color block combinations are achieved. The sample here is woven using bamboo fiber (lace weight) and silk (sewing thread weight) creating a smooth and soft drape. Yarn is available to purchase if needed. Class is held over 2 days, 2 hours each day, with a day off in between.

Have you ever wanted to weave wider than your loom will allow? Well now you can! Using a second heddle, you can weave twice the width of your warp. Learn the double weave technique for the rigid heddle loom while making a beautiful winter wrap. This is a fun and easy introduction to double weave. You will need the second heddle capability on your own loom, a second matching dent reed, and 2 pick up sticks. Yarn not included. You will need 2 colors for the warp: approximately 350 yards each color, plus a total of 560 yards for the weft. The class is held over 3 days.
