About

If you know how to weave and would love to create original patterns and then weave them into a variety of designs, then this workshop is for you!

Join nationally known fiber artist Robyn Spady as she gives us an in-depth look at the amazing versatility of  the twill weaving structure.  

This class is for weavers looking to further their knowledge about twills with an emphasis on advancing and networked twills, but will also cover corkscrew twills and echo weaves.

Students will:

  • understand how to draft and weave advancing, networked, and integrated twills;
  • explore how versatile a single threading can be; and
  • weave a sampler with a variety of patterns and designs.
