Beginner Rigid Heddle Weaving - Tanya
Great first time weaving class. Weave on your Rigid Heddle loom or rent one from us and create a lovely 12" x 20" table runner.
Please contact the shop about renting a loom if you do not own one as the project will not be completed during the class time.
Feel free to contact Tanya at (407)595-6524 via text or call before the class date to discuss yarn options/supplies for the class.
Beginners will learn to warp a rigid heddle loom and weave a table runner. Beginners and those needing a refresh of the basics are welcome.
For the table runner you will need 2 skeins of worsted weight cotton yarn such as Cascade Nifty Cotton or Nifty Cotton Splash (approx. total needed 350 yds).
Contrast between colors is helpful. Please have them wound before class day.
Beginners will learn how to warp a loom and begin their table runner in the first class session.
The second class will cover finishing techniques and how to remove the project from the loom.
