Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

Learn to weave in this beginner's course, exploring traditional tapestry approaches such as interlocking, inlay, and shape-building alongside basket weave, twill, soumak, pile, rya, and twining techniques. Don't have a frame loom? No problem. Your instructor will walk you through building your own. Through faculty-guided discussion and presentations, you'll also deepen your understanding of weaving's relevance concerning material production, fine art, and craft. Presentations on contemporary handweavers supplement this studio experience. No experience is necessary.
