Introduction to Weaving on an Inkle Loom
About Introduction to Weaving on an Inkle Loom
Have you ever looked at the big looms and wondered if weaving was for you? This class is your chance to find out! We will use a Mini Inkle Loom to explore weaving with a simple heddle system to create a basic warp-faced fabric that will introduce you to some of the principles used in weaving on the multiple harness looms. You will learn to warp your loom, tie heddles, create 2 different sheds to pass the shuttle through, how to keep your edges tidy and how to begin and end your project. Class fees include a handmade mini inkle wood loom and shuttle for you to keep, along with the threads for your class project.
