Floor Loom Doubleweave Sampler

In this weekend workshop weavers will learn how to dress the floor loom for doubleweave. They will each then weave a doubleweave sampler working their way through weaving two layers, tubular, double-width, double weave pick-up and how to create slits. This class is all about learning and going through the process rather than weaving a completed project. Yarn is included in the tuition.
