WEAVING COURSES

The rigid heddle loom is a wonderful tool for weaving small projects like scarves and cowls, and in this course, we'll explore two-colour interlocking projects, to create two very different scarves. Taught by Amanda Wood.

Taught by Amanda Wood, this course explores pattern and colour, and how these things work together in our handwoven projects. We learn how to approach a new to you yarn – trying different combinations, playing with the sett and learning about how to respond to its particular character. Amanda also covers weaving a gamp, giving us information about how pattern and colour work together, then taking this information to make a project entirely unique to ourselves.

Learn how to double weave on 4-shafts loom: weave a mini sampler, bread bag and a blanket. December 15th Release.

This course is designed to be an overview of the essential concepts to weave on your rigid heddle loom, multi-shaft loom, or whatever loom you choose.

Weaving can sometimes be a little bit intimidating to people to get started because it seems like when you start weaving that you need a…

Watch the recordings from the Live Lecture series with Master Weaver Laura Fry! The first Wednesday of every second month at 12:00 p.m. P.T. Laura joins us live through Zoom for a series of lectures on weaving fundamentals.

The focus of this ongoing series will be on working with colour and incorporating handpainted and hand-dyed yarns into our handwoven projects. Specifically, we’ll look…

Learn to disrupt plain weave with lace, learn how to use a pick-up stick to create warp and weft floats on a rigid heddle loom with Amanda Wood.

Welcome to Magic in the Water: Wet finishing for Weaving. We're going to look at what happens when you take your project from the loom and wet finish it. The final step in bringing your individually interlaced threads into real cloth!

Learn to weave! In this multishaft weaving course, we will learn how to dress a table loom and floor loom and weave a sampler project.

Follow the Rigid Heddle Study Guide at the School! Find weekly guidance to work through Colour & Weave on Rigid Heddle Loom course, from weaving a colour & weave gamp, wet finishing your gamp and weaving either the class pattern or designing your woven cloth.

 

In this course, we are going to be learning how to use this versatile loom with two projects: a sock yarn scarf and a sock/lace scarf. Throughout these videos, you'll learn how to:

• Calculate how much material you'll need to weave the kind of scarf or wrap you want
• How to use the direct warp method
• How to use the indirect warp method
• How to use a basic weave structure to make a scarf
• How to finish a scarf
• Further resources to take your rigid heddle weaving to the next level

In this course, master weaver Laura Fry shares her techniques for weaving efficiently and ergonomically. Join us to learn her practices for every step of the weaving process, from planning a project to winding a warp to dressing the loom.

Taught by Debby Greenlaw, author of Krokbragd: How to Design and Weave and Krokbragd Patterns, learn about the beautiful Norwegian weaving technique called Krokbragd!

In this first weaving study group, we will work on getting started with weaving on 4-shaft looms and work towards weaving our first twill gamp. Following this study group, you'll be able to design your own twill project using the yarns you've chosen to work with.

Explore the many ways you can weave twill fabrics using just four shafts, taught by Felicia Lo Wong! The first project in this workshop will be weaving a twill gamp, which is a way for us to experiment with many different variations of twill. And then using the information we learned from making this twill gamp, we’ll design our own project!
