Weavers Way Co-op is working with the Philadelphia Guild of Handweavers to host a workshop introducing young people to the fun of weaving on a "knitter's loom," also known as a rigid heddle loom. Students will weave a small wall-hanging using yarns provided by the Handweavers Guild. It's a great and quick way to learn how to make a lovely gift! Looms are provided through a generous grant from MAFA (Mid-Atlantic Fiber Association).

Age level: students 6-12 years old, able to learn independently without parental assistance.

$5-10 gift-based donation (no one will be turned away for lack of funds). Space limited. REGISTER HERE.

Weavers Way workshops include presentations, hands-on classes, book studies, film screenings and discussions. Most are free and open to the public. Weavers Way members who lead workshops get three hours of work credit — what a great way to earn, or maintain, your Working Member status for 5% off all your purchases!
