This is a fun activity in Catford, London
In this one-day weaving course in London, you will learn the basics of plain weave on a rigid heddle loom. This loom is a perfect starting point for beginners as it is an affordable, compact, and portable option, but the skills you learn here also transfer to both smaller and larger looms.
This hands-on workshop is designed to give you a solid foundation in weaving techniques. Before the class, you'll have a chance to pick out some colours for your warp, which I will prepare for you. When you arrive, you'll have a quick lesson (while sipping on a cuppa) on the basics of the loom and different types of weave and their uses.
As part of this creative activity, I will guide you through the entire process. You’ll learn how to balance warp and weft, combining materials and colours to bring out the best in your fabric, so you can feel confident when you start your project.
All materials will be provided, but you are welcome to bring your own if you'd like to add a more personal touch.
You'll leave the session feeling inspired and accomplished, with a solid understanding of weaving fundamentals and your very own hand-woven fabric to take home.
