SUMMARY:[SOLD OUT] Scandinavian Style Pick Up Band Weaving Workshop with Caroline Feyling
DESCRIPTION:This program is sold out. To be added to the waitlist\, please call 612-871-4907.  \n\n\nThis class meets over two days\, Saturday and Sunday July 25 and 26\, 10 am-5 pm both days. \n\nJoin textile artist Caroline Feyling in blending traditional and contemporary craft through band weaving! This portable and engaging technique is excellent for those with some weaving experience and enthusiastic beginners alike. For centuries\, weavers throughout Scandinavia\, the Baltics\, and Sápmi regions of northern Europe have woven intricately patterned bands using just a few simple tools. The bands are decorative yet incredibly practical (as garment edging\, hairbands\, apron belts and costume sashes). In this class\, students will learn Nordic pick-up style weaving using the traditional backstrap rigid heddle loom. Students will learn the entire weaving process\, starting with winding a warp\, threading the heddle\, weaving a band\, and finishing bands. Finished projects are suitable for use as belts\, straps\, and decorative edgings for clothing. \nTools and Materials: \n\nA $35 materials fee covers materials for two bands. Optionally\, students can purchase their weaving tools from the instructor at the end of class for an additional fee.\nIf you need it\, bring magnification (i.e.\, readers)\, a cushion for sitting on\, and your own document holder or pattern holder for easy pattern reading.\n\n  \nAdditional information: \n\nSkill Levels: Open to beginners but especially recommended for students with some past weaving experience\, including the plain weave band weaving class offered the day before.\nAges: Suitable for ages 14+. A discounted tuition price for youth is available at checkout.\nPhysical Ability: Band weaving requires some finger and hand dexterity and the ability to sit or stand for long periods of time.\nAdvanced registration required. Registration for this class is requested by July 9\, 2026.
