Two Day Introduction to Multi-Shaft Weaving with Beth Truesdale
About Two Day Introduction to Multi-Shaft Weaving with Beth Truesdale
Students in this two-day class will experience every aspect of multi-shaft weaving; planning a project, winding warp chains, threading a loom and weaving. Students will work in pairs to fully set up a loom. After completing the warping process students will then weave projects on several different looms, both table looms and floor looms. There will be a total of twelve looms, each with a different warp color and weaving pattern, some will be cotton "rag rug" style with cotton rug warp and fabric rag strips for weft, others will be wool warp and weft. Weaving projects are mug rugs and hot pads. Features and uses of different types of looms, shuttles, warping tools, etc. will be discussed. Students will also be instructed on how to finish their projects at home.
