Create Your Own Color and Weave Sampler Scarf


Class Level: Advanced Beginner


Description: Learn to get outstanding color pattern effects using a rigid heddle loom. make your weaving look like complicated patterns with very little effort. If you are already familiar with the rigid heddle loom, this class will help you master more advanced techniques. If you are a new weaver, the technique is not too difficult to learn. This type of weaving is portable, easy and fun and can add variety to your fiber abilities. This workshop introduces students to color patterns on the rigid heddle loom. They will learn how to control their shuttles for smooth edges. During the day we will warp the loom and weave a sampler scarf that teaches several color patterns. Along the way, we’ll discuss various techniques for rigid heddle weaving and finishing techniques.

Homework: None

Supplies to bring:  250 yards each of worsted weight in 2 contrasting (think black and white) colors. Yarn should be smooth, at least 2 ply, strong and not hairy and should be wound into balls prior to class. 2 shuttles and bobbins, tape measure, scissors, tapestry needle, cardboard tube from inside a paper towel roll, 2 brown paper grocery bags. You will need a rigid heddle loom with at least 8” wide weaving width, warping peg, clamps, and sley/threading hook.
