Festive Woven Wreaths Workshop
Let’s weave our own wreaths!
In this circular weaving workshop, we’ll use a sculptural technique
called rya loops to create dimensional, unique wreaths in the
festive color way of your choice.
You’ll also learn a versatile technique called open-center warping.
With a selection of colorful chunky weight yarns at your disposal,
you’ll have everything you need to craft a stunning heirloom that
you’ll enjoy year after year.
This workshop is great for beginners or intermediate weavers
interested in learning the basics of circular weaving.
