Day/Date/Time: Saturday, 7/8/2023, from 9 am to 4 pm. This class meets once.
Description: Learn how to thread an inkle loom and read a pattern. We will make one band in class that incorporates several techniques. This class will open a whole new world to you, whether you are a reenactor or simply a modern crafter looking to expand your horizons. Bands have been used for thousands of years to contain things, close bags, keep hair neat, as a button band to match sweaters, to hold your socks up or your blouse to your body. No prior weaving experience is required. Tuition includes handout and a packet of yarn and other supplies.
Required Supplies/Equipment/Books: Inkle loom, belt shuttle, scissors and note-taking material.
Prerequisite: Know how to make a square knot and an overhand knot (see our video at Joan Sheridan’s YouTube channel https://youtu.be/x9IdCn89gfM).
Pre-Class Prep: If your loom is other than a Schacht or Ashford, please email a sideview of the loom to the instructor prior to class to confirm suitability. (info@heritagespinning.com)
