Weaving is such a wonderful and therapeutic form of making.

- Design, calculate and implement your own tapestry weave design.

- Warp up a tapestry loom & most importantly how to get the tension right.

- Make tassles to add into your wall hanging and to create a fringe finish.

- Participants will be introduced to NEW techniques to further expand your weaving knowledge.

- Changing colours & creating shapes within your piece.

- Interlocking colours

- Creating curves

- Rya loops

- Soumak weaving & alternative methods

- Weave patterns using warp arrangement

- Finally, how to finish off your weave art, taking it off the loom and hanging it onto a wooden branch for hanging on the wall.

You will be encouraged to experiment with colours and textures using a selection of yarns and roving to create your piece.

After 4 weeks, Participants will take home one beautifully finished woven wall hanging! End product will measure up to 30''x15'' (12'' tassel length)
