Got a new Cricket Loom but aren’t sure where to start? Let us show you how to get going making beautiful woven fabrics in our Rigid Heddle Basics class!
This class is an introduction to hand weaving on the Cricket rigid heddle loom for those who have one. Students will learn the parts of the loom, and new weaving vocabulary. We will direct warp the loom in class and weave a balanced weave so projects can be completed at home. Loom rentals are also available.
