at Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network (BARN)

Attend one or both of these workshops!

9 am-Noon: Deciphering the Drawdown – Making sense of Drafting

Few weavers receive instruction in drafting when they initially learn to weave. By understanding how a pattern is developed, a weaver can know why the pattern creates the design it does, reduce dependence on projects, create innovative designs, and understand how to augment the possibilities of a single threading by changing the tie-up, weft, and/or treadling.

1-3 pm: Weave Structures: Totally Twill – the Basics

Twills are one of the most versatile weave structures and the possibilities are amazing. The breadth of weaving twills can be a bit daunting, but so much fun! In this workshop, the basics are covered - from straight draw and point twills to broken, undulating, M&W, Dornick, plaited, and turned twills.

Several looms will be warped up in the Fiber Arts Studio so you can try twill patterns in the week following these workshops.
