About

Weaving on a rigid heddle loom is fun and easy. The looms are small and portable and your weaving can be as simple or as complex as you like. This class is for both those new to weaving and established weavers looking for a way to make quick projects.

Learn how to direct warp the loom, do simple balanced weaving, identify and fix simple mistakes, and remove the finished project from the loom.

Rigid heddle looms are perfect for weaving with hand-knitting yarns. Participants choose from a variety of yarns provided by BARN to make a scarf to finish by the end of class and take home.

Details:

  • Skill Level: Universal - beginners to advanced weavers. 

  • A $25 materials fee included in the price of the class covers the yarn provided.
