Class Details:
If you’ve taken Beginners’ Tapestry Weaving with me, or learned the basics elsewhere, try this class to take your weaving even further. In this class, we will cover shapes—open slit tapestry, jacquard, and dovetail interlocking. We will discuss double warping and how to create more ends per inch to ensure a lovely curve to your shapes. We will also cover all the tools of weaving and how to make and use them, and you will be ready to make even more unique, stunning pieces to give or keep!
Homework:
None
