A creative way to use up leftover balls of yarn or a new yarn you can’t wait to work with, this
method of weaving is easy and fun! Learn ways to combine colors, textures, and fibers as you
make a unique and beautiful scarf. Learn to weave while creating something lovely to wear or give
as a gift. During class, we will discuss what yarns will work well together and which ones might
not be the best choices, so bring what you have and let’s talk! Tabletop looms will be provided.
You’ll have a completed scarf at the end of the workshop!

Tapestry needle

10-15 yards of waste yarn (acrylic works best)
