SUMMARY:Class: Intro to Traditional Weaving\, part 1 of 2
DESCRIPTION:In this class\, we’ll learn the specifics of setting up and weaving on a rigid heddle loom. These concepts will also be taught in the larger context of weaving that’s been practiced in numerous cultures for thousands of years. You’ll learn some of the basic terminology and approaches which apply to a variety of looms\, so you can choose to build on this knowledge with multi-shaft or tapestry looms in future workshops. \nIn this hands-on workshop you’ll learn to direct-warp yarn onto your loom\, weave (including exploring techniques like clasped weft and simple lace)\, and remove the sample piece from the loom\, and we’ll talk through weaving math\, planning projects\, and wet finishing. \nMaterials: We will provide a 10″ rigid heddle loom you can take home between sessions (please note that if you break or damage the loom\, you are responsible for the replacement cost). You will need warping and weaving materials; we recommend that you bring 2-4 partial or full balls of sock-weight\, fingering\, or worsted weight yarn.

SUMMARY:Class: Recycling yarn from sweaters
DESCRIPTION:Do you have old sweaters that are no longer in style but are holding gorgeous yarn hostage? All of our closets\, attics\, and basement\, not to mention local thrift stores\, are great sources for some fun yarn experimentation and exploration. In this class\, we’ll do a hands-on tour of the full process\, including tips for selecting an appropriate sweater\, deconstruction techniques for maximum yarn harvest and minimum frustration\, proper washing and winding techniques for various materials\, how to prep your yarn for knitting/crochet/weaving\, and project ideas for using your freshly-harvested yarn (some sample pieces will be shared). Each participant will apply the techniques to their own sweater during the class\, and a lively discussion is encouraged. \nRecommended tools: small sharp-pointed and large sturdy scissors\, spare double-pointed knitting needle or small crochet hook\, ball winder\, and self-winding swift or niddy-noddy. \nBring a sweater of your own to recycle or for a $10 materials fee we’ll provide a suitable washed sweater.
