Meeting times: January 27 and February 10 & 24, 12-4 PM
The studio was hopping at our first meeting for 2020 with weavers learning the technique of turning plastic bags into yarn, commonly called plarn! We look forward to seeing all the different bags the group creates. In other news the RHSG leaders offered to decorate the studio showcasing items woven on the ever so humble rigid heddle loom. Items woven by the group will be on display for two months so be sure to stop by to see all their wonderful creations.
The next project we will explore from the past is the triangle scarf; this project came out in the January/February 1986 Handwoven by our very own Betty Davenport. The technique to weave the scarf on a rigid heddle loom was developed by Suzanne Gaston-Voute of Vancouver, British Columbia. It is a fun and quick weave because the warp is cut and becomes the weft.a
