Learn to Weave on a Rigid Heddle Loom

Description: The rigid heddle loom is a great tool for exploring weaving, using up your stash, and learning something new!

In this 2 session class students will learn to warp the loom, and weave and finish a scarf. Our first session will cover designing, calculating, warping the loom and weaving. Students will finish their projects at home, returning a week later for a quick one hour lesson on taking your scarf off the loom and finishing techniques - and seeing everyone's finished pieces is so fun!

Cost: $120 bring your own loom / $140 borrow a loom

Materials: Two 100 gram skeins of Worsted weight yarn (if you are using your own loom let us know what size reed you are using in case you need a different weight yarn), a rigid heddle loom.
