Inkle Loom Weaving – an Introduction

2 hour 16 minute instructional video with Marilyn Romatka. Woven cloth is ubiquitous in today’s world. We often take it for granted, unfortunately. Like learning the basics of playing the piano – especially for younger students – there is value in knowing the basics of how cloth is woven. This video class has no prerequisites, no weaving experience needed. The class is recommended for ages 12 and up. You will learn the fun method by which the warp is wound onto the loom (and how to fix any mistakes in the warp), how to start and end a project, how to weave useful warp-faced bands, how to see the simple elements in a complex design and design a band that is unique to you. We will cover plain warp-face weave as well as touching on the finger manipulated ‘pick-up patterning’ technique which gives you access to unlimited pattern in your bands. https://taprootvideo.com/preview_class.jsf?iid=1&cid=8
