About the course

You will learn how to weave warp-faced bands – guitar straps, shoelaces, artwork – with a backstrap loom and rigid heddle. We will start by weaving a back strap and continue to experiment with pattern and colour. This weaving arrangement is portable, accessible and full of possibilities. No prerequisite.
