I love teaching weaving, just as much as I enjoy weaving itself. It’s a craft that keeps you asking ‘what happens if?”. I enjoy provoking that question – “have you tried blue with that?”, “how about trying this weave structure”, “what do you think about that yarn?”.
Introducing the craft to new weavers is a joy, once you get past the amount of time it takes to set up a 4 shaft loom, the possibilities open up before you and you realise the wealth of possibilities that weaving brings. It’s a perfect combination of the creative and the logical sides of your brain.
