Woven Wonders: Round Weaving Workshop, Saturday 06/01, 2:00pm -6:00pm with local artist Katie Knorovsky
Spend a Saturday afternoon discovering the meditative art of circular weaving during this textural feel-good (literally) workshop. If you can imagine turning a beautiful sunset or desert landscape into a color weaving, and that lights you up, you’re going to love this class!
Guided by local fiber artist Katie Knorovsky, you’ll tap into your intuition to create tactile wall hangings while playing with color, manipulating textural fibers, and enjoying the therapeutic pace of weaving by hand. Learn the trick to turning any hoop into a frame loom and how to warp a round loom, including how to set up your weaving with an open center. Then we’ll explore a variety of beginner-friendly hand-weaving techniques to add texture, dimension, and organic shapes and create a one-of-a-kind wall hanging, using a range of yarn, wool, and other premium fibers.
Finally, we'll cover finishing techniques to secure threads and prepare your artwork for displaying at home. Bring an image with a color palette that inspires you! Tear a page from a magazine, save a photo to your phone, or grab some paint chips, flowers, seashells — anything and everything is fair game.All materials provided.
