Carve a band gate - Weave a band!

Finally, we can welcome master craftsman Kerstin Neumuller to Gothenburg!

Carve a band gate - Weave a band!

With her book "Simple weave - Weaving without a loom," Kerstin Neumüller wants to show that weaving doesn't have to be difficult or bulky. In this course, she also shows how you can make your weaving tools yourself with just a few tools! Here you will learn how to carve a band loom and then weave bands on it. The course is an excellent introduction to weaving and provides a good foundation if you want to continue with larger projects and tools later. Materials are included. The course is suitable for both beginners in carving and weaving and those with some experience. Basic hand strength is a prerequisite to be able to carve a band loom. 

Day one - Carving day

Kerstin shows her small band looms that look like girls, horses, and houses and tells how she started carving them. During the day, you get to carve your own band loom under Kerstin's guidance.

Day two - Weaving day
How do you decide the pattern the band should have? We talk about the possibilities when weaving with a band loom, then we weave. Use your newly carved band loom or borrow one from Kerstin! You will have time to try different band patterns and weave enough to take home some bookmarks or bracelets.
