weaving with lisa liedgren alexandersson january 25th
Practice the meditative art of weaving on a rigid-heddle loom with textile artist Lisa Liedgren Alexandersson.
Field trippers will choose from wool yarn in a variety of colors to create a winter scarf - an object of comfort as well as one that allows for connection to material, form and structure. Using pre-warped rigid heddle looms, field trippers will learn the techniques and skills of plain weave. This full-day workshop takes place in the artist’s Greenwood studio. A vegetarian lunch and refreshments served.
Additional studio time will be available the Sunday after workshop to complete projects. Beginners welcome, no prior experience needed.
