Is dressing your loom your least favourite part of weaving? A necessary evil to get to the fun part of actually weaving? Often the idea of preparing your loom to weave can be somewhat off-putting. Maybe we can help make this journey to a smooth and evenly tensioned warp more efficient and less painful. There is no one right way to warp a loom. Join Fran Nowakowski, April MacLean, and Jess Baikie as they demonstrate different methods of warping and packing a warp.
In addition to the tips the leaders will share during the demonstrations, participants are invited to share tips they have learned along the way. While this isn’t a comprehensive weaving course, you will go home with lots of ideas to speed you on your way to warping the fabric of your dreams.
Max number of participants: 20
