Tapestry making
Promoted by St. Volodymyr Institute
Event Description
This workshop is an introduction to the very ancient, simple yet endlessly variable art of tapestry weaving on a frame loom. You will learn to wind a simple warp on a frame and do pick up weaving with wool to create a small tapestry sample incorporating traditional Ukrainian designs. You will be introduced to the foundational concepts and terms used in weaving, as well as common patterns.
Weaving and textile making is one of the oldest crafts in the world. Come learn this timeless beautiful practice, and connect with Ukrainian heritage and humankind’s shared heritage. Feel the mystery and joy through the work of your hands.
