This workshop will explore making a five-inch agave broom and a twelve-inch corn broom using an ancient technique. These beautiful brooms can be used as a table sweeper, medicine lymph brush, altarpiece, or beautiful art for the wall.

With Judith Symonds. In this three-session course for beginners, we will use 12 x 16” lap looms to learn the what, why, and how of warp and weft. Students will complete several small projects, and acquire the skills needed to continue exploring tapestry weaving on their own.

This plant dye workshop will highlight the plants and dyeing projects that are especially characteristic of fall. The day will start with an end-of-season harvest of flowers, leaves, and roots from our biodynamic dye plant garden. Back at the Studio, we will dye a variety of natural materials with our harvest from the garden.

Using the decorative star stitch pattern and organic merino yarn plant-dyed at the Fiber Craft Studio, we will create a long wraparound cowl with three colors. Workshop participants will select their three colors from a wide selection available at the Studio. The resulting piece will be soft and light, yet warming. This two-part workshop meets on Sunday, March 26 and April 2, 2:00-4:00pm.
