Join us for Rigid Heddle Weaving with Irina Phillips.

Learn to weave cloth on a simple rigid heddle loom, a basic, portable loom that can weave towels, placemats, runners, scarves and many other functional items.

In this class students will learn a simple way to measure and set up the warp (lengthwise threads) and how to manipulate the threads up and down to weave beautiful cloth.

Students will leave class with their own handwoven scarf! All equipment and supplies provided.
