This full-day Introduction to Weaving class covers the basics of weaving through the process of creating handmade bookmarks on a small lap frame loom (which you can take anywhere!). During the class, we’ll cover how to load a shuttle, warp a loom, and some of the basic weaving techniques, including twining, tabby, twill and weaving in ends, which will help set you up for future weaving projects. We'll start by creating a fun color block bookmark (designed by you!) and follow it with a second bookmark using the elegant twill pattern. You’ll leave the class with two of your very own bookmarks! New to weaving? Don’t have a loom or weaving materials? No worries! This intro class is the perfect entry point to dip your toe. And, my Beginner’s Lap Loom Weaving Kit has everything you need to get started! Learn more in the Materials Section.
