Weave a Coaster Set on a Frame Loom
Adult Intensive | Available
Learn how to weave on a frame loom using a plain weave to make a set of handwoven coasters. We’ll first warp our looms so that two coasters can be woven using one warp. Then using a variety of different colors and weft faced/plain weave structure, we’ll weave our coasters. We’ll go over a couple different finishing techniques and cut our coasters off the looms finished and ready to take home.
- Some prior weaving knowledge is helpful. All materials will be provided.
