Weaving with Neutrals for a Cause with Shop Peppermint

This four hour workshop is designed to allow anyone who is interested in gaining a solid foundation on Tapestry Weaving. Basic plain weave is taught with an emphasis on details such as texture, fringe, shapes and pattern. Different threads such as wool roving and a variety of yarn weights will be offered with a neutral color palette. We will top off the workshop with a mini lesson on the loom, warp, and getting your piece ‘display ready’. This means taking your piece off the loom and attaching it to a wooden dowel. All makers will leave with a medium-large wall hanging for their finished piece. Courtney Craig along with shop Peppermint owner Tanvi Asher, are excited to host this workshop at the Culver Armory in hopes of bringing people together to create original textiles while supporting shelter animals at Verona Street Animal Society. 20% of the proceeds from this workshop will be donated to VSAS along with any donations dropped off at the workshop site or in store at shop Peppermint.
