Weave a towel with !
In this class we will warp together focusing on how to work with cotton and achieve good even tension. As we begin to weave, we’ll learn to insert and use pick-up sticks to create a striking overshot style pattern. This class is designed as a next step if you’re ready to move beyond plain weave. You’ll explore how to add texture and pattern to your cloth, work with 3 pick-up sticks, and begin to play with colour, and using more than one shuttle.
