Description
Teacher: Stella Lange
Tablet weaving dates to at least the 8th century BCE, and this class introduces you to the skill practiced by so many before.
If you’re interested in learning more about weaving but don’t want to invest in a bulky loom, tablet weaving is an ideal thing to try. It’s compact and we supply everything you need for class, you don’t need to show up with a thing.
In this form of weaving –threads are continually twisted around each other – making a hard wearing textile. The shoelaces you make in class will fit a 16 eyelet shoe or boot (but can be made shorter or used for other things if you wish).
You get to keep the supplied equipment so you can continue to tablet weave after class. Tablet weaving is an excellent medium for all kinds of decorative tapes or ribbons.
Students will be able to choose from a range of colour options, and designs. You will be contacted before class to select your colour scheme so that materials can be prepared accordingly.
