Weaving Workshop 5 & 6 October 2024
Would you like to spend a day with friends and family, creating together and sharing a new (or not so new) experience? Our workshops are relaxing, fun and a wonderful way to spend quality time together.
They can be tailored to your particular interests, or can be set out purely as something new to experience. Very popular as mother/daughter experiences, visiting friends, or even the whole family. This is a full day workshop where you will be guided through every step, from the basic art of weaving on a floor loom, to creating your own unique piece of fibre art. You will weave a wall hanging, using a variety of yarns, fine threads, fabric strips, lace and other mediums. We have a huge choice of yarns and textures to choose from, what you use is entirely your choice. We will explore various design techniques and at the end of the workshop if you choose to you can attach the wall hanging to a piece of dowel, or other medium of your choice. Or maybe your wallhanging is nicer as a table runner – people usually only decide what it is when their piece is nearing completion.
Although this is a one day event, I keep Sunday open so you can spend extra time on a project should you wish to. While one day is plenty to make something small, the extra time will allow you to make a scarf or a wrap.
Floor looms are all threaded and ready, so you are free to enjoy the weaving without the warp set up.
No experience necessary. Suitable from ages 5 to 95. As long as you can reach the peddles and gently work them, then you can sit at the loom and weave.
If you would like a wider warp to weave yourself a wrap, please let me know at least one month in advance so I can prepare the warp for you. There is a small extra charge of $40 to cover extra yarn and preparation time.
Numbers - 1 - 5.
Time:- 10am - 3pm
Materials supplied. Alpaca yarn extra
Refreshments.
