Striped Cotton Towel

In this “Beginning Rigid Heddle Weaving” class you will learn the parts of a rigid heddle loom and the importance each part plays in your weaving. You will learn how to warp a loom and weave a dish tpwel. You will also learn hemstitching that holds woven yarn in place after the towel is removed from the loom.

We will discuss different weave structures and how color can really impact your woven items.

Your first woven project will be a striped towel using two or three colors of cotton fiber. Each towel will be different, depending on the color cotton you choose and if you choose to weave with just one of the colors or using all colors, as in the sample.

Materials:

It is recommended that you purchase Berroco Pima 100 – one skein of each color. You can pick colors to match your kitchen or bathroom.

Looms are available for use during the class.  If you have your own loom, please let us know the make/model in the notes at the time of registration.
