Workshop Overview:

Weave deflected double weave samples on your pre-warped loom using various fibers and setts. Explore selvedge methods “where the shuttle meets the shed” for beautiful finishing. Discuss various finishing methods with and without agitation. Cut samples off loom and hand wash prior to day 2. Dis- cuss and compare hand washed samples – movement/deflection vs differential shrinkage. Explore a simple treadle OR tie-up change to weave a scarf with the remainder of your warp (or sample).
Class size limited to 10-12.
Materials: Warped 8 shaft loom, 2-4 shuttles, yarns on materials list (18/2 Zephyr, Tencel or Bamboo), SOAK for washing samples, notebook, pen and pencil. Natalie says a 4-shaft 6 treadle loom can be used. There would be less design possibilities, but lots of color/fiber possibilities.
