Weaving: Intro to Rigid Heddle - Beginner Stripe Scarf

Date: January 13, 2026
Time: 10:30 am - 2:30 pm

Details

Come learn how to weave on the rigid heddle loom in this project-based introductory course! Students will learn about the loom, how to thread it, and how to weave on it. At the end of the three-part class, students will have created a unique striped scarf (or table runner) made from cozy cotton bamboo blend yarn. This class is great for beginners or those who need a refresher! Looms and supplies will be provided, or you can bring your own. More details will be sent from the instructor after registration.

Workshops will be led by Sara Goldenberg White, who has been teaching weaving along the Front Range for over a decade. Her passion for weaving and teaching started during her graduate study at Colorado State University. She teaches a variety of fiber techniques, but sharing her love of weaving with others is one of her greatest joys. Sara co-authored Simple Woven Garments: 20+ Projects to Weave and Wear with Jane Patrick. Sara also has a lively fine arts practice and has exhibited her work at museums and galleries throughout the country. Sara enjoys balancing the creation of her own work with sharing her love of weaving in the classroom. She looks forward to seeing you there!
