Weave a sample, using a provided design. Weaving a card-woven selvedge is optional, as is my option for weaving the beginning and end to result in a hemmed sample. If you prefer a fringed finish, it is a simpler option. I will furnish a pre-measured and chained 8/5 linen warp. Also, unless you have a preferred wool weft, I will furnish wool from my favorite supplier.
If you do plan to use your own weft, please let her know ahead of time. If there is an available loom, she will set up a warp for a shaft switching demonstration and anyone who is interested can try it. In fact, if a student wants to do shaft switching on their own sample, that is an option. Please be advised that it is a slower procedure.
