Weaving for Timber Framers

Weaving for Timber Framers
June 3 - 7, 2024
One Week Session  $750
 
The purpose and focus of this 4 - 5 day weaving class will be to acquaint timber framers and wood workers with the actual process of hand weaving on an early hand loom. The loom is a very specific tool designed to hold tension and manipulate threads so that fabric can be created.
Knowing exactly how this tool should respond and what is actually involved in the process of weaving will benefit all those who hope to repair, restore or build from scratch these amazing looms.
Participants will begin with designing a project, making a warp, dressing the loom and then weaving their own fabric.
 
Maximun enrollment in the class is 5 students.
