In this workshop, participants will use frame looms to weave and explore color, form, and materiality by using brought or found objects and how they mark time and space. In addition to weaving with found materials, participants will learn how to weave on a frame loom using woven structures such as plain weave, slit tapestry weave, and rya. Participants are encouraged to bring materials from home and additional materials will be provided. Exclusive for beginners.
