October 8 - 12 (Mon. - Fri.)

If you’ve already learned the basics of warping a loom and want to explore some more advanced techniques or if you just need a refresher course, here’s the one for you! It’s time to clean out the cobwebs and get out of your comfort zone whether that means continuing with four harnesses or going on to eight. Come with an idea of some weave structures you want to study or let Tom help you decide. And remember, the holidays are just around the corner so it would be a great time to make a few gifts for those special people in your life.
