Workshop Information
Course outline
In this 5 day course you will learn how to operate a table top 4 shaft loom.
You will be guided through the process of selecting appropriate materials, based on your own artwork or an image of your choosing. After being introduced to ancient and traditional weaving structures, you will experiment and practice weaving your own cloth on the looms.
At the end of this 5 day course you will have a selection of woven samples that you have designed and made yourself alongside a knowledge of how cloth is woven and has been woven for centuries.
