#209  Joan Sheridan – Weave a Flock of Sheep: Turned Krokbragd on the Inkle Loom    Full day Thursday $100

Skill level:  Must be comfortable warping and weaving a plain weave band using the inkle loom.

Workshop Description:  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. In this class you will learn how to read a pattern, set up the loom, and weave.

Students should bring:  A standard-sized inkle loom (mini looms are not well-suited to this technique), scissors, #10 crochet cotton for heddles (both double and continuous). Preferred looms are Schacht or large Ashford or similar looms.

Homework:  Make 30 double heddles. Visit this link for a tutorial: https://youtu.be/im8tIcUZhzM where you will also find a link to an accompanying PDF.

Material Fee:  $25  Yarn, handouts, keychain hardware, and other helpful weaving accessories.

Class Limit:  12
