Intro to Weaving: Woven Necklace Workshop

In this class, we will create a custom handwoven necklace from start to finish. This is a great introduction to the fiber art of weaving and no experience is required. We will cover how to set up a loom, how to weave with varying stitches including basic tabby weave and soumak, how to add fringe, and how to finish your weaving to make it wearable. The possibilities are endless for this project and woven necklaces make great gifts to give or keep. All tools will be provided.
