Instructor: Sara Collazo Romay
Class Description:
Introduction to Weaving begins with the basics of hand-weaving using a Schacht Wolf Pup 4-harness floor loom. On the first day, participants will learn how to wind a warp and set up their own looms. The second day will cover how to weave, basic weave structures such as plain weave, baskets, twills, and some tapestry techniques. The class will conclude with cutting off and finishing the edges of your weaving. This class can be taken multiple times with a different project variation each time. This class is designed for those new to weaving as well as for those with some experience but want a refresher. All materials and equipment are provided.

Cancellation Policy:
Please consider carefully before signing up for one of our classes or purchasing a class for another person. Due to the small class size for in-person workshops and the limited number of looms, each person makes an important contribution to the group dynamic and cancelling within short notice can make it difficult to fill your spot. If you do need to cancel, please be aware of our policies:
There are no refunds for class fees. However, if the cancellation is 30 or more days before the start of the workshop, you have the option of rescheduling for a different class free of charge. If the cancellation is fewer than 30 days from the start of the workshop, there is the option of rescheduling only if your spot is filled from the Waitlist. You also have the option of transferring your class reservation to another person at any point. The closer the start date, the more difficult it can be to fill a spot from the Waitlist.
No refunds will be given on gift certificates. (Updated 04/24/2025)
