From Sett to Shrinkage: Weaving Project Planning Webinar
Course Overview
Are you having trouble determining your ends per inch? Are you tired of planning a project that turns out to be way smaller than you'd hoped it to be? Then this is the webinar for you! Join Christine Novotny as she walks through planning a project for floor loom weaving, step by step. In this webinar, we will use a mock project and follow Christine’s tried and true Project Planning Sheet to demonstrate how to determine sett, plan warp length and width, calculate how much yarn you'll need to order (down to the ounce!), easy ways to do weaving samples, working with drafts, and more! We will also cover how to assess your projects after they come off the loom as well as good record keeping. This is an excellent opportunity for new floor loom weavers to gain confidence in creating their own handwovens, or experienced weavers hoping to learn a few new tricks to improve their planning skills.
