About the Event
Tiwtor / Tutor: Sarah Key (Dwi'n dysgu Cymraeg)
Costiau / Cost: £40
Begin to make narrative patterns on your rigid heddle loom with 'overshot' weaving. Â You will warp, weave and design during the day to create a pictogram (letters & symbols) with personal meaning. This course is suitable for all levels from beginners onwards, but some knowledge with rigid heddle weaving will allow you to progress with greater complexity. Â
In one day, you will work your tutor, Sarah, to warp up a small rigid heddle warp, design your pictogram and weave your 'overshot' Â pattern. Â You may even wish to design a personalised 'valentine' for someone special.
Materials provided: A variety of solid coloured cotton will be provided on the day.
Bring your own: rigid heddle loom, 7.5dpi reed,  & loom  equipment (shuttle, threading hook, warping peg & clamp), scissors,  variegated cotton yarns of your own (if desired). Â
Please note: If you would like to try a loom we have a couple  Ashford rigid heddle looms that can be used on the day for this  workshop, but they are limited so get in touch to see if you can borrow a  loom and then book your place!
