Cotton Tea Towel Weaving Workshop

For those who want to try something a little more challenging than wool and plainweave –
create a cotton tea-towel in English Plainweave structure. This workshop includes warping your own loom using doubled threads.
Depending on your preferences and finished length your weaving could be used for a hand-towel, tea-towel, bread cloth or sewn into a bag, cushion, purse and so on. Select your feature colour when booking from the range of Ashford Caterpillar cotton, and we will have co- ordinating colours of plain cotton to go with it.

Skills covered will include:

Warping doubled ends on a rigid heddle loom
English Plainweave
Weaving with cotton and tips for dealing with non-elastic yarns
Posture & tips for avoiding strain
Warp-dominant weaving

We will be using 100% cotton yarns, if you are unable to use cotton please contact us to discuss alternative options.
