Weaving on a Cardboard Loom – Live Instruction!
Saturday, September 26, 1:00-2:00 pm
Join Artist & Craftsman Supply and Touchstone Center for Crafts to learn how to make your own simple cardboard loom at home! We’ll craft our own looms and cover some of the basics of planning, setting up, and weaving through your projects. Simple and scalable, cardboard looms are a great introduction to basic weaving activities like festive wall hangs and cozy potholders.
This project is appropriate for all ages and skill levels. Children under 10 will need adult supervision.
