*MAXIMUM NUMBER FOR THIS COURSE IS 8*
On this course, run by experimental archaeologist and loom maker Jalea Ward, you will learn how to set up a warp weighted loom and the basics of weaving on it.
You will learn how to wind the warp and transfer it to your loom. Alternative methods for this will also be discussed.
You will then learn how to set up the weights and weave the heddle.
Finally you will begin to weave your own piece.
This day course is designed as an introduction to setting up the loom rather than gaining weaving skill, but we will cover as much as we can.
All looms and materials will be supplied, but if you have a loom you would like to bring, please let us know in advance.
There will be equipment available to purchase on the day.
Accommodation is not included but if required it is available within the local area, some suggestions can be found on our 'local accommodation' page - please arrange this yourself. Refreshments are provided on the day but not lunches.
Toilet and classroom all easily accessible from the car park.
PLEASE BRING OWN PACKED LUNCH.
Attendees must be over 16.
