🧵 Learn with Us! Space is STILL AVAILABLE in our August "Traditional Overshot Weaving" workshop with Margaret Dugger!
Wednesday, August 19 - Sunday, August 23, 2026⁠

Overshot weaving is a highly decorative and functional style of weaving; using four harnesses and two shuttles, you will be able to create complex and geometric cloth!

Diving into traditions from the Appalachians and early American history, you will learn to “tromp as writ”, “weave it square”, and to interpret handwritten drafts.
