$100.00

Beginning Weaving with John Salamone is now waitlist only thanks to the wonderful response we have received for this event.

In this special course, you will learn all the basics of threading a 4-harness floor loom and weaving mug rugs (also known as “coasters”). This is a great workshop for learning the basics of weaving or refreshing your skills in a relaxed and peaceful environment. White Violet Center will provide looms and all tools needed for the class. There will be group and personal instruction to help build your knowledge of the skills that weaving requires and enhance your creativity.

A light lunch will be provided. Please indicate any food allergies or dietary preferences on your registration form.
