Workshop: Overshot-Patterned Double Weave on 4 Shafts
Instructor: Barb Gallagher, The Weavers Loft
Workshop fee: $90 members / $115 non-member
Class limit : 12
Workshop Chair: Penny Marsh
Don’t like the long floats in overshot? This eliminates them! Don’t like double weave on 4 shafts because you can only do plain weave? This gives you patterns! Learn how to take any 4 shaft overshot pattern and turn it into this technique.
Each participant will provide a warped 4-shaft loom.
Threading information will be given at time of registration.
List of materials to bring will be provided.
