Rigid Heddle Level 2 - Design and Weave Cotton Cloth




Having learned to dress the loom and weave a simple project with wool, this next class will introduce students to working with cotton thread. You will design and weave your own plain weave cotton fabric, learning how to achieve various patterns such as stripes, checks, tartans, houndstooth, and log cabin.

The finished fabric can then be used in various ways depending on your desires. Hand towels, placemats, bags, and anything else you can think to use your own fabric on! 





SUPPLIES NEEDED:
Various colours of 4/8 cotton (this will be discussed in class)
Snips/Scissors
Tape Measure

Students should have completed the Rigid Heddle Level 1 Workshop or have experience warping and weaving on the Rigid Heddle Loom. If you are a beginner looking to learn, we suggest heading over to our intro class, HERE!
If students require more time to finish their projects, they can rent the loom for $10/day for up to a week after their last class. 

This workshop is suited for adults (age 15+)
