Waffle Weave Towels on a Rigid Heddle Loom (IP)

This class is currently full. Please call Customer Service at 1-800-367-9327 to be put on the wait list.

What, you can use 6/2 coned cotton on a rigid heddle loom? Yes, you can! Bring your loom to this class and learn how to thread up and create textured, absorbent dish towels. Students will warp up enough for two towels and begin weaving the first one, each one working at their own pace. The warp is striped and the weft can either be one color or striped, also. The rest of the weaving is finished at home. These towels make terrific gifts, or you can keep them for yourself.

For the comfort and safety of our students and teachers, students may be asked to wear a mask during in-person classes and workshops, and are available upon request.
