Double Heddle Dishtowels on the Rigid Heddle Loom (in person)
Come learn how to weave on your rigid heddle loom using two heddles at once! In this class students will learn how to thread two heddles as a way to increase their ends per inch to use finer weight yarn. The end result will be striped dish towels made from organic cotton. This class will also continue to build experience with how colors interact on the loom and tips for how to cut and hem handwovens!

Rigid heddle loom with a 15" weaving width (or greater) that can hold two heddles at once
