Lace Weaving on the Rigid Heddle with Nicole (In Person Only)
Light and airy lace is simple to weave on a rigid heddle loom with only a single heddle! Hand-manipulated laces mean you are doing some of the extra work so your loom doesn’t have to. Learn to weave 3 different types of hand-manipulated lace on your loom to create a sampler and then choose one to design a scarf all your own.
Weaving time outside of class is required. This is an intermediate level class - students must know how to warp a loom for a single color in plain weave on their own.
Students will learn:
- How to weave 3 different types of lace
- How to set up a loom for samples AND a project
- How to design their own project
- A simple macrame technique for fringe
Materials you will need:
- Yarn for warp and weft: 680 total yards fingering weight yarn
