Meet the materials and understand how a textile begins. Discover the role of the loom, warp, and weft, while exploring how weaving knowledge has traditionally been learned through observation, repetition, and transmission between generations of makers.
Experience the fundamental gestures of weaving yourself. Learn how threads intersect, how tension is controlled, and how repetition gradually transforms individual fibers into a structured textile.
Choose your palette, textures, and materials and begin building your piece. Experiment with combinations and patterns while discovering the patience and rhythm required to create something row by row.
