kitchen towels

Students will learn to warp a loom with 2-3 colors of cotton yarn, following a weaving draft. They will also learn a new way to tie the warp onto the loom using shoe laces. This is a great way to save yarn. We will get started weaving the first day. The students will need to finish weaving between classes. The second day of class will be show and tell of their beautiful new towels, Q&A especially for those who require a bit more help, and tips and hints.

This is a two-day class. Participants will need to weave at home between sessions.

Class times:
Saturday, April 20 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Saturday, April 27 from 10 a.m.-12 p.m.
