MATERIALS
Students do not need to bring any materials to class. Materials are provided. A materials fee of $5.00, in addition to the $20.00 class fee, will be charged and is payable at sign-up.
The instructor will also have some hardware sets available to make different items (for example, key fob, bracelet clasp) if students want to use their weaving to make specific items. These hardware sets will be for sale directly from the instructor during class.

OBJECTIVES
To learn new techniques and improve on basic skills.

DESCRIPTION
During this two-session course (each session 3 hours), students will learn to use an inkle loom. Inkle loom weaving dates back centuries. In the past it was used for sashes, lashing material, decorative trim, and to produce harnesses for horses and livestock. Modern inkle weaving produces narrow bands that can range from a fraction of an inch to about 4 inches wide. In this class, students will weave a basic patterned dog leash.
