Duration: 3 hours on a ready-to-use hand-operated loom to weave the front side of a 30 x 50 cm cushion<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Course outline: You will weave on a hand-operated loom on which a black or white warp has already been set up (the threads stretched across the loom will already be in place), and you will choose the weft threads to use for weaving. You will learn the basic techniques of weaving \u2013 that is, the actual act of weaving \u2013 and experiment with different weaves (weaving patterns).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colors and materials:
Front side of the cushion, woven during the course: black or white cotton-linen warp. Weft: cotton, linen, wool or mohair wool, depending on your choice during the workshop
Back side of the cushion: ready-made organic cotton fabric, black or white (to match the front)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will make your cushion myself in the weeks following the workshop and post it to you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
