Beginning Off-loom Fiber Techniques with Ferne Jacobs
This one-day workshop will be a quick introduction to three off-loom fiber techniques: knotting, twining and coiling. It will be a time for playfully exploring the basic attributes of each technique. Students will create a sample comprising all three techniques, gaining a beginning knowledge of each one. The sample can then serve as a reference for ensuing projects. The outcome will be both informative and exploratory.
Students provide: Scissors, repair or tapestry needles, a macrame or foam core board (12” x 12” x .5” or larger/thicker), and T-pins. Optional: yarn or cord (3-ply or more) from your own collection. Further details and links provided with sign up.
Workshop fee: $150; the prime cord will be provided.
