Learn to Weave in a Weekend - 4 day class
2026-10-26 12:30 - 15:30
Day/Date/Time: Friday through Monday: 10/23/2026 through 10/26/2026. This class meets for four days.
Friday through Sunday 9 am to 4 pm, and Monday 12:30 – 3:30 pm.
Description: Learn to weave on a multi-shaft loom in one (long) weekend. Class is a combination of lecture and weaving. The class covers yarn selection and preparation (winding a warp), dressing the loom (attaching the warp to the loom), reading a pattern, weaving and finishing. From one warp you will weave a sampler experimenting with different patterns.
Required supplies/equipment/books: Socks or slippers to wear while weaving (bare feet are fine, but you will not wear shoes while weaving).
Class fee includes: Loom usage, yarn for the class project, a comprehensive workbook, a take-home weaving toolbox filled with all the “extras” that a weaver needs plus access to the instructional videos for two weeks following the class. No additional supplies or books are required.
Prerequisite: None
Pre-Class Prep: You will find it helpful to read weaving magazines – current and back issues. Even if what you are reading raises more questions, persevere! Write down your questions and we will work to answer them in class. Mindfully begin to notice fabric – how woven fabric differs from knit fabric, how colors work together (or not!). Notice upholstery fabrics, clothes in your closet or on racks at the store. The more you think like a weaver, the more you will BE a weaver. Prior to class, please watch the video links that will be emailed to you, plus this video about knots for weavers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9IdCn89gfM&t=24s
Instructor: Su Hatfield
Maximum: 5 students
Fee: $350.00
