Beyond Basics Weaving Course
★★★★★
“I recently did Learning to Weave with Corrin. I loved it! The course was well-structured and went at a comfortable pace. Corrin was a very patient and encouraging teacher. The activity was both creative and mindful, and the results were immensely satisfying. I can’t wait to do the next course and learn more skills, techniques and patterns.”

A takehome workbook with all of the information you need to weave and to record your samples fibres and patterns.
Yarn is not included in this course, however, it is recommended that a specific yarn is supplied by the learner or the option of purchasing here is available for the course.

Yes!
The cost of the loom and tools is not included in the course fee. If you don’t have your own fear not, looms and equipment are available to rent.
Please add this item onto your course purchase.
An inventory checklist will be included and reviewed upon return to ensure everything is ready for the next enthusiastic weaver. This system works on mutual trust—Corrin’s preferred way of doing things—and she kindly asks that all items are handled with care and returned on time.
Missing or damaged items may result in some seriously bad karma—and a replacement fee of up to $400, which covers the full kit and express shipping to keep things running smoothly for the next student, just like they did for you.

You will try out all sorts of new weaving techniques. Weaving is a slow meditative process that needs time to learn, experiment and enjoy. We will be weaving samples only. The focus here is about having fun, trying out new techniques and learning the skills required for you to play on your loom at home.

Please bring water and a snack if needed. Yarn required to make your samples are not included in the cost of the course. You can purchase supplies required during the course, but please ring me and let’s chat about your needs first.

Yes! Looms come in all shapes and sizes and this depends on size and the different equipment needed to warp up. There’s some set up variations but possibly can be a workaround.
