Sticks & Strings

Sarah Goslee has been studying and teaching fiber arts for over twenty years.

Her expertise is in obscure historical/ethnographic techniques like tablet weaving, sprang, and ply-split braiding, but she's dabbled in nearly everything. She has a special fondness for methods that produce complex structures with little or no equipment.

Sarah has taught at guilds and workshops around the Northeast and writes about fiber arts at: www.stringpage.com.

Sticks & Strings

Weaving

Friday, 9 am to noon

Instructor: Sarah Goslee

All Levels

Course Description:

Little is more basic than turning yarn into cloth, but many people are put off by the idea of purchasing expensive looms and learning how to use them. But wait! You can get started weaving beautiful patterned bands using nothing more than supplies you pick up at an office store: unsharpened pencils, rubber bands, binder clips and twine.

You’ll come away from this half-day class with your own sticks and string, knowing how to set up a warp and weave, and even how to design your own patterns. We will weave a bookmark or bracelet in class.

Course Cost:

$35 class fee + $3 materials fee
