Learn To Weave on a Rigid Heddle
Rigid Heddle looms are a great way to explore texture and color in weaving. In this class, participants will get an introduction to weaving language and project planning, including a Project Planning Worksheet that helps them calculate how much yarn is needed for a project. Then they will learn how to use a warping peg to do a direct tie-up and threading for the warp. Once the loom is warped, they will practice weaving in a basic tabby pattern.
