SUMMARY:Intro to Mini Loom Weaving Workshop by Amanda Brimm!
DESCRIPTION:Intro to Mini Loom Weaving Workshop\n\nNovember 9 & November 16\n\n1-3pm\n\n$65\n\n(2-day workshop includes all supplies!)\n\nMin. Students: 4\n\nMax. Students: 8\n\nAdults and youth 12+ with an adult welcome! \n\nPreregistration required!\n\n \n\n\n\nClass Description:\n\nTablet weaving is an ancient art form dating back to at least the 8th century BCE in early Iron Age Europe\, with similar practices found in the Middle East\, Asia\, North Africa\, and South America. Also known as card weaving\, this technique uses tablets or cards to create the shed through which the weft is passed. It's an inexpensive and portable form of weaving\, as no loom is required and when a loom is used\, it's typically very small.\n\nIn this class\, you'll learn to create narrow decorative bands that can be used for a variety of projects\, including dog leashes\, clothing trims\, bookmarks\, necklaces\, belts\, hat bands\, bracelets\, shoelaces\, and guitar straps. You can even sew the bands together to make bags\, placemats\, cushion covers\, and more. This workshop covers the basics of weaving and pattern design\, equipping you with skills to get more creative with band weaving or even inspiring you to explore larger loom projects.\n\nThe workshop includes a small tablet loom and a stick shuttle\, along with yarn\, as part of the class fees. If you have an Inkle Loom\, feel free to bring it along the concepts taught are applicable to both.\n\n \n\nInstructor Bio:\n\nAmanda describes herself as a "Serial Crafter\," passionate about exploring new art mediums and craft skills. From soap making to painting\, woodworking\, and everything in between\, she's become quite the Renaissance Woman. Her journey into weaving began during her time as Business Manager for AVL Looms\, Inc. in Northern California. Since the 1960s\, AVL Looms has been a premier manufacturer of production handweaving equipment\, blending new technology with industrial weaving practices. Though Amanda currently lacks space for a floor loom\, she uses a small Inkle Loom and a simpler Tablet (or Card) Weaving Loom she designed and built herself. Amanda and her husband moved to Wallowa County in 2019 after being displaced by the Paradise Camp Fire. When she's not crafting\, she enjoys backpacking\, playing pool\, and backyard birding.
