Weft Faced Weaving
Jan
19
to Jan 21

Weft Faced Weaving

Weft faced weaving structures emphasize weft yarns allowing the weaver to experiment with color and pattern in unique ways. These projects are perfect for wall hangings, upholstery, and rugs. They are also quick to set up, using fewer warp ends which are widely spaced to allow the weft yarns space to pack in. Kept small, these projects are a great "palate cleanser" between projects. Larger projects allow the weaver to savor time at the loom.

Class meets at 1112 Price Avenue, Columbia, SC 29201 from 5-8p on Friday, 9-5 on Saturday, and noon-5 on Sunday.

Cost for the course is $130 and includes all materials and equipment.

A non-refundable $30 deposit holds your place in the class. Balance of $100 due on the first day of class.

Students are expected to have familiarity with the fundamentals of weaving and be able to warp a floor loom with limited assistance.
