Manipulating your Warp Threads for Dynamic Weaving - Scarf

Class Level: Advanced Beginner

Description: By twisting or wrapping your warp yarns you can weave distinctive textures and patterns in your cloth.  Learn to weave lace-like open areas as parts of a design throughout the fabric or as a notable edge treatment.  You’ll learn how to make leno, brooks bouquet, and other fancy patterns. If you’ve been looking for ways to add more interest to your weaving, these techniques will get you there.  You too can create cloth that is visually stunning.

Homework: None

Supplies to bring: 400 yards of smooth, at least 2 ply, worsted weight yarn that is strong and not fuzzy (200 yards each of 2 different colors works well), scissors, tapestry needle, pick up stick, cardboard tube from inside a paper towel roll, 2 brown paper grocery bags.

We are still taking sign ups for our fantastic needlepoint retreat in August.
I am working on the sample and making progress.
We are going to have a GREAT time!
