COLOR INTERACTION FOR HANDWEAVERS

3 day workshop, 1.5 hr lecture

Through use of warps and sample weaving and colored yarns, we will explore the basics of color theory and interaction through experimentation and weaving. Practical ideas, useable color theory, samples and paper experiments, along with handouts and lecture notes will enable students to complete a color theory notebook for themselves to use throughout their weaving careers!

Beginner – Intermediate level.    Students need a loom, minimum 4 shafts, pre-dressed to teacher specifications, and all necessary weaving equipment.  A detailed materials list will be sent upon confirmation of registration in class.

Materials fee will include handouts and some supplies that are more difficult to find.  Price will be determined prior to time of registration booklet publication.

Room requirements: Each student needs seating at a table or desk. 2 people at a 6 foot table allows ample work space.  Additional space for looms, either table or floor looms required.  Chalkboard, chalk, erasers and two 6 foot tables for teacher.  Good lighting is important.  Class size limited to 15.
