#103 Joan Sheridan — Weave a Flock of Sheep on the Inkle Loom  Full Day Friday 9am-4pm  Bldg 10 South   $100

Skill level:  Intermediate

Workshop Description: How fun to weave sheep! A good next step after learning plain weave on the inkle is to weave turned krokbragd. This technique is derived from floor loom weaving and is Scandinavian in origin. It is a loom-controlled weave, so it is easy to weave--the magic happens in the set up. You will learn how to read a pattern, set up the loom, and weave a sheep band. A pattern for a second band is included. Students must be able to warp their loom independently.

Students should bring: Unwarped full-sized inkle loom. Mini inkles are not suited for this technique. 25 premade double heddles, scissors, shuttle, note taking materials.

Homework:   Make heddles using the instructions found here or bring Texsolv heddles sized for your loom. https://youtu.be/im8tIcUZhzM, also see link to PDF in the video notes.

Material Fee: $30  Includes:  Handout with two patterns, 5/2 cotton, separator sticks, keychain hardware, and other materials to assist in warping.

Class Limit:  12
