Weaving 101

Class - Textiles | Registration opens 8/11/2026 9:00 AM EDT

Have you been wondering if you could weave your own cloth?  Would you like to make your own handmade heirlooms your family with cherish for generations to come?  You have arrived at the right place!


Come learn to use a floor loom and make beautiful and useful projects in the process!  Students will learn everything they need to know to dress a floor loom, plan and design a weaving project, the mechanics of weaving, and finally how to dye for a special effect. 


This class focuses primarily on dressing a loom.  While this class is meant for absolute beginners, weaving requires physical and mental stamina.  If you have questions prior to the class, feel free to reach out to the instructor by email.
