Double two tie weaves with Elizabeth Calnan

Advance your understanding and expand your weaving skills.

One of my desires is not to thread very often, but weave a lot of different structures, and this is one threading that does twills in blocks, basket weave, plaited twill, double weave, combinations of these, Summer and Winter and stitched cloth.

It can be used for light fabrics, to create warm heavy quilted fabrics and floor rugs. The workshop will be theory and weaving…. a come, think and play workshop! 

Prerequisite knowledge that each student needs: good knowledge of Summer and Winter, the concepts of weaving double weave, and good Fiberworks or weaving software skills.

When you register you will receive instructions for preparing your loom.

This is a two day workshop - 9am - 4pm Saturday and Sunday.
