Handwork: Circular Weaving

Posted

Open to 3rd-5th grade, $150 (includes materials)

Create a circular weaving project! The process is similar to regular weaving, but it's done on a round loom instead of a rectangular one, so that our warp strings will look like bicycle spokes. We’ll use a variety of fibers to weave in and out of these spokes in a circular pattern.
