Announcing Warp & Weave!

 

I’m thrilled to announce the launch of my new teaching website, Warp & Weave!

Warp & Weave will teach you how to design superb handwoven cloth. Since that’s a pretty broad topic, I’m starting by writing about color, since it’s a huge challenge for many weavers. I expect to spend the next year focused on helping people choose and use color fearlessly in creating handwoven beauty. I’ve already written three blog posts on the topic, and will be publishing more color articles weekly.

To give you an idea of what I’ll be publishing there, here are my three most recent Warp & Weave posts:

Why Bright Colors Weave into Dull Projects – and What to Do About It

How to Tame Troublesome Hues When Creating Handwoven Fabric

How to Use Black to Give Your Handwoven Fabric Pizzazz

In addition to the blog posts, I have a free e-book on my site:

It will help you choose colors and drafts that create bold or subtle patterns in your woven projects, as you prefer. Get the e-book here.

Finally, I’m developing an online class, Fearless Color, which will teach you how to use color confidently in creating beautiful cloth.

(If you want to be notified when the class is ready, sign up here.)

Please check out Warp & Weave! (And if you like what you see, please share it with your friends, guilds, and online groups!)
