The following is a list of classes that can be undertaken by independent study in the studio. A base version is also suitable for a 2 or 3 day workshop for guilds.
Experience level
- Studio class: Any level can be catered for from the very beginner to extended work for the more experienced.
- Guild: I can tailor a workshop to guild requirements. However, apart from Weaving basics, an ability to prepare a loom for weaving is required. The looms will be dressed prior to the workshop except for Weaving basics, ikat and Colour my warp.
Loom requirements
- Studio: According to student preferences. From 4 or 8 to computer assist.
- Guild: unless otherwise stated, 4 shafts are the minimum requirement.
