Weaving Academy
This series of workshops is aimed at weavers who would like to dive deeper into woven textile design to confidently plan and execute their own weaving projects.
Armed with notebooks, pencils , rubbers and coloured pens we will explore drafts, structures, yarn choices, sett calculations and loom types. We will look at various samples, books and yarns to facilitate better understanding of the material. The course come with handouts and tasks to complete at home. you will be encouraged to ask all the questions and bring any books, past projects or ideas to discuss and share with others.
Please note that the aim of the Weaving Academy is not to make a finished object but rather give you all the tools to design your own projects, and knowledge to choose the best materials, techniques and equipment to bring them to life.
