MI: Ryijy Weaving Workshop

June 17 - June 21

Learn how to weave a Finnish ryijy rug! With their plush, textured surface made from tufts of yarn, they’re as enjoyable to touch as they are to view. Students will use the traditional loom-woven method to create an approximately 12” square sample of their own design for use as a wall hanging. Topics covered will include design patterns, preparation of materials, color blending, knotting methods, edge treatment and finishing techniques. Students may use their own yarns or choose from a specifically allocated selection available in the studio for an additional fee of $50.

Daily from 10am-4pm
(Studio access for loom warping Sat-Sun June 15-16)
