Students will weave with sumptuous fine wool yarns and learn tapestry techniques including hatchings, hachures, slits, and patterns for combining colors, and experiment with eccentric or non-horizontal weaving. They will begin with warping a small loom and choose or create a design to be a paper cartoon to use as a guide during weaving. Beginners will start with basic techniques. Intermediate and advanced students may choose to have a specific focus, or problem solve in a difficult area.

All levels are welcome. Small looms and all the equipment, materials, and yarns are available to use in class.
