Joanne’s classes are highly acclaimed throughout the U.S.A and abroad. She is very well known in the hand-weaving industry as a weaver, teacher & author of Tying up the Countermarch Loom and Learning to Warp your Loom.
This exciting weekend-long workshop will teach you the basic concepts of of four-shaft overshot weaving, studying some of the many possible pattern structures; we will also look at other weaving patterns.
