Weaving the Perfect Towel - Aug 18, 2019 09:00 am
Towels are the weaver's muse. They are the perfect platform to show off all kinds of colorwork, structural elements, and style. Students learn what makes a good towel, techniques for warping fine yarns, weaving with multiple colors, measuring on the loom, and finishing considerations to create a textile that has drape, absorbency, and pizzazz.

Swatching for Weaving - Aug 18, 2019 06:00 pm
Have you had an idea, headed to the loom, and then halfway through through your brilliant idea, think, "oh, this isn't what I had in mind at all." Swatching allows you to get to that knowledge quicker. By weaving a small swatch you can see if a given yarn will substitute well for another, if you like your color choices, or if your sett choice is right. Liz will demonstrate how to create the perfect swatch using the Purl & Loop's line of swatching looms and show examples of how swatching helped her fail faster and weave better.
Cost: $ 30.00

The concept of the event is to challenge yourself, spin and have fun.
