[Book your sched] Modern Weaving Workshop for Beginners

Skill level: beginner

Location: The Art of Yarn Craft Studio (tap the link to see it in Google Maps!)

This in-person session is about the basic weaving techniques you need to create your first handwoven piece.

Weaving is one of the oldest methods of creating fabric and is a celebrated cultural practice in the Philippines. This workshop introduces Modern Weaving, a contemporary take on the traditional practice that makes it easier to learn the craft at your own pace, capacity, and space.

The complete set of Weave-It-Yourself kit is yours to keep for more woven projects! By the end of our session, some students will finish their woven piece while some can take it home to complete later. You will learn that weaving is a slow craft and that practicing this at your own pace is best as it can be relaxing, fun, and therapeutic!
