Intermediate Weaving Class

Intermediate Weaving
Starting in October and January

Learn more about weaving as you create your own special project. Choose to make a scarf or shawl, towels, yardage, a rug, or whatever you like. You can weave a project from a book or magazine, or from one of Linda’s drafts and samples. If you are a more advanced student you can design your own project with help from the instructor.
