Introduction to Freeform Tapestry Weaving Outdoor Workshop

A standing tabletop loom enables us to incorporate a wealth of textures such as fluffy roving, long fleece locks, silk ribbon, cotton punis, and handspun art yarn. We’ll learn how to set up the loom and plan a design. Using various weave structures and knotting methods, we’ll discover how to achieve geometric shapes and contours. At the end of class, everyone will have completed their own sampler tapestry to take home. All equipment, tools, and materials will be provided, and participants are invited to bring any special fibers or yarn they would like to include in their works.
