Workshop March 19, 20, 21, 2009 | Jane will once again be coming to educate us, make us laugh and dazzle us with the clarity she brings to weaving. “Pushing the Boundaries of Plain Weave” will leave you wondering how you could ever have thought of plain weave as being so… well… ordinary.
Jane has always looked at plain weave as the most important architectural structure in hand weaving. You will come away from this workshop understanding that plain weave is anything but plain. Its enormous potential for creating “canvases” on which to design is often overlooked. Learn the various ways that plain weave is used structurally to create fabrics, including: Cramming and Denting, Denting, Colour and Weave, Warp Faced, Weft Faced, Supplementary Warp and Supplementary Weft. The samples are woven in luxurious yarns and create a stunning swatch collection.
