In this class, participants can expect to learn the basics of weaving, including how to make your own portable looms, set up a warp and a weft, and learn textile weaves such as plain weave, twill weave, and wrapped warp. We will then transfer the weaving techniques into visible mending on damaged clothing and other functional textiles.
Note: There is no class on 2/19.
