Join Spelex̱ílh, Anjeanette Dawson, a traditional wool weaver, knowledge keeper, storyteller, and Indigenous educator from the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) Nation and make your own wool weaving! Learn how to weave using a loom and discover the history, revival, and teaching of wool weaving. All materials are provided.
You will have ample time in the first session to set up your loom and learn basic weaving techniques. Anjeanette will demonstrate twining and other techniques she uses to create shawls, blankets, sashes, headbands, and belts. Your loom and woven piece will be securely stored between sessions for finishing at the second session.
Workshop in two sessions: Saturday, March 1 and 8.
