Denise Kovnat - One Warp, Many Structures

This workshop explores the possibilities of extended parallel threading, beginning with Echo
designs. As Marian Stubenitsky has shown in Weaving with Echo and Iris, extended parallel threadings offer endless possibilities. In this workshop, designed for advanced beginners and beyond, you will begin with your loom dressed in a two-color warp thread on opposites. *(Drafts will be provided to students beforehand!) Working with a variety of tie-ups and treadlings, you will weave a series of designs in Echo, Jin (Turned Taqueté) and Shadow Weave – and, if you’re game to cut off and resley your warp, Rep and Double Weave. The takeaway is a sampler of colorful patterns and a broader, deeper understanding of the potential for extended parallel threadings and how to design them. For 4-shaft looms and more.

NOTE: As of Feb 13, the workshop is full and has a waiting list.
