Designing and Weaving Color-and-Weave Effects
About Designing and Weaving Color-and-Weave Effects
Are you interested in combining colors with weave structures to create patterns more complex than the number of shafts on the loom? Then this program is for you!
Color-and-weave effects are created when a dark-light color sequence are combined in the warp and weft. This is often done in fabrics woven as a plain weave or simple twill. Color-and-weave fabrics are simple to design and weave, require few shafts and treadles, and one threading can be used to create multiple patterns.
This class is limited to 75 students.
