Program Description: DESIGNING AT THE LOOM WITH MULTIPLE WARP CHAINS.

This presentation focuses on techniques  for working with multiple warp chains while designing at the loom. There is huge  freedom in sitting at the loom and making  well informed decisions as you design  and setup. But it can be a nightmare without a system to keep all your yarn under control. Fabric for towels will be the project that I demonstrate while helping you explore the possibilities of simple, effective use of materials. I use four warp chains (three spacedyed warp chains and one solid color  chain for background) in a straight draw threading. This creates exciting plain weave, rib, rep, turned taquete, and twill  with a single loom setup. These playful techniques require no pre-planning other than having enough threads for the width of fabric you want to create. You
will discover a few ideas that wake up creativity in your weaving. Guaranteed. The last 30 mins will be reserved for Q&A.
