Weave PDX

Bring your weaving and items for "show and tell". See you next week!

Locally made items available this weekend at the Summerfield Craft club annual sale in Tigard. Sandra Wolfe will have lovely handwoven towels and scarves for sale. Perfect holiday gifts or just treat yourself!

Weave in Community meets October 8th, 10 am until 1 pm, at the Tigard library. We will have a warp refresher for anyone feeling stuck. Everyone is welcome! If you are even just slightly interested in weaving drop in and see what we are up to.

Our weaving group resumes this week on Thursday, September 18th, from 1-3 pm at the Tigard Library Technology Room on the 2nd floor. This group is open to everyone.

We will have a demonstration of hybrid warping. This method uses a warping board (or clamps on the edge of your tabletop) with the warp tied onto your loom and going through the heddle, just like in direct warping. It's a great space saver for long warps.

If you are curious about weaving on a rigid heddle loom please stop by - we will have several models in use (as well as a very unique Clover loom) and are happy to take questions and let you try it for yourself!

If you have extra yarn you don't want please bring it to swap and share. If you are a Portland Handweavers Guild member keep in mind that the "Weftover" sale will be held Oct. 11.
