I am really excited to be offering the Herringbone on a Rigid Heddle Loom class!
Not just because herringbone is such an enchanting weave, but also because this class is very unique.
Usually when I release a new class, I focus on a particular technique or means to set up the rigid heddle loom. This presents a problem. I’m always asked how to set up in other ways.

For example, if I use a single heddle, heddle rod and pick up stick to weave a particular project, students will ask how to weave it with two heddles. And vice versa.
For this class, I decided to spoil students by providing not just one, but three options for setting up the loom to weave herringbone.
This helps to cater for different learning styles and also differing budgets.
Method one uses two heddles, a pick up stick and a heddle rod.
Method two uses one heddle, 2 heddle rods and a pick up stick.
Method three uses three heddles.
Each method provided has step by step video instructions, visual threading charts and written instructions.
Students will complete a classic herringbone scarf as the class project.
To complete this class you will need:
A rigid heddle loom, 10″ or wider
10 dent heddle (number of heddle required depends on your method choice)
Also, depending on your set up choice, you may need:
Pick up stick
Heddle rod/s
Elastic bands
Full yarn requirements will be available upon enrolment.
The class will be available for single purchase, or, if you are a member of the Online Weaving School, this class will be included in your membership. Premium members currently have early access.
Now, for a little fun! As a pre-release celebration, I’m offering two of you the chance to win this class. The winners will be given access to the class upon it’s release shortly.
