Sunday Nov. 9, 1-4PM at Beetle and Fred
Learn the basics of frame loom tapestry weaving and create your own woven wall hanging in this beginner weaving workshop led by Courtney Salerno (@madeby_cjk). Courtney will bring some finished pieces she's created to help evoke some inspiration and for you to get ideas for your process.
During this class you'll learn:
- how to set up the warp thread on the loom
- weaving stitches including rya knots, rya loops, tabby weave, pile weave, and soumak weave
- how to add fringe
- how to weave with fibers of various weights and textures
You'll leave with a small wall hanging and the skills to create more on your own. Registration includes all the materials necessary to make a small wall hanging, including a loom, warp thread, yarn and dowel for hanging. If you'd like to continue your weaving journey, there will be the option to purchase the materials at the end of class. Grab a friend and learn something new!THIS CLASS WILL MEET AT THE STORE, 217 MAIN STREET
