About

Are you captivated by painted warps and want to know how to prepare a warp for dyeing? In this workshop, you'll learn how and actually dye them. The instructor will share different dye patterning techniques. And you'll create your own hand-painted Tencel for a shawl or scarf.

The goal is to understand how to make a warp of flowing colors in this mini color theory class. You'll learn how to have a dyed warp that is not tangled and how two skeins can be used as weft or separate projects.

You'll wind your own warp and tie it in a specific way that controls the warp while dying. You'll apply and set the dye,  take it home to finish rinsing, and put on the loom to weave.
