Workshop takes place in Hannah’s studio on Mabgate, Leeds
Tablet weaving is a beautiful craft, used to create woven bands, belts or straps.
In this session, Hannah will introduce you to the special equipment and processes for tablet weaving. Pre-prepared looms will be provided, and you will quickly get to grips with the techniques involved.
When you’re feeling confident, you will set up a loom with colours and patterns of your choosing. By the end of the day you will have a distinct woven piece suitable to use as a strap, handle or decorative braid.
