Weaving is an ancient, time honored craft. Looms can range from the simple to the massively complex. This class will teach the basics of weaving with a table top rigid heddle loom. You will learn how to warp the yarn, thread it and weave it. The Cricket Loom by Schact is compact, capable and cute! At only 11" x 18" x 6" and just under four pounds, it's easy to take along. The ten inch weaving width gives plenty of room to make a variety of projects without sacrificing portability. Comes with two stick shuttles, a warping peg, threading hook, two table clamps, and 8-dent rigid heddle reed and two balls of yarn.

Instructor: Nancy Alegria has been weaving since 2003 and has taught weaving to both elementary school children and adults. She has also been a regular contributor to Weavecast and wrote an article for the first issue of Weavezine.
