Ready to saddle up and dive into the world of weaving?
Our Begin to Weave class with our expert, in-house weaver Dorothy Tuthill, is the perfect starting point!
A four-shaft loom is a versatile weaving tool that allows you to create a wide range of patterns and textures. With this type of loom, you can manipulate the threads to produce intricate designs, from simple stripes, to plaids, and even to complex lace.
Whether you're a complete novice or a seasoned crafter looking to rekindle the joy of weaving, this two-day immersive workshop will show you the ropes of the process from beginning to end.
This class will give you the practical skills and confidence you need to start your weaving journey.
You'll even be able to continue your project at home with a take-home loom and connect with fellow weavers who share your passion for learning.
Don't miss this opportunity to ignite your creativity!
