About
Love to weave, but hate to warp? Want more versatility from a single warp? Then this is a workshop for you!
You'll warp your loom with your choice of one of three four-shaft threadings and perform an extreme makeover and weave it many different ways — from twill, lace, and overshot to swivel, corduroy, deflected weft, and double-faced. At the same time, you'll be presented with the basics of different structures and how to adapt a single threading to weave a number of different weaves, including concepts such as star vs. rose fashion, weaving on opposites, and echo treadling.
Note: This is not a round-robin workshop.
