Weaving an Ocean Horizon Workshop at the Farm | December 17

This session is held at our farm, Paradiso la Caria. We'll have time to visit with the alpaca, chickens and ducks, too!

This beginning weaving class on Thursday, December from 10am tp 2pm covers the basics of weaving, including how to create shapes and texture, and transform them into an ocean sunrise! We’ll use lap looms (which you can take anywhere!) to create a small woven tapestry. During the class, we’ll cover how to warp our looms with a heddle bar as well as the basic weaving techniques, including twining, tabby, soumak, shapes, and rya knots. We’ll also use some embroidery to put the finishing touches on our seascapes!

Finally, we’ll learn how to clean the backside of our weaving project and you’ll have the option to finish them off using a hanging rod.

Don’t have a loom or weaving materials? No worries! My Ocean Sunrise Weaving Kit has everything you need to get started! 

By the end of class, you’ll take home:

+ Your own woven ocean horizon (a wall hanging or shelf piece)

Perfect for: Beginners and curious crafters! No weaving or astrology experience needed—just an open mind and a love for making magic with your hands.
