Bring your own rigid heddle loom 16″ or larger with a 10 dent reed. We have  rigid heddle looms available for purchase. Arrangements can be made to work on a loom in class for a small fee.  Class loom will stay at the Alpaca Learning Studio. We are a Kromski dealer and can fix you up with your own loom. But first let’s get you going without that commitment.

Harp Ridgid Heddle Loom

Cost: $185  a skein of weavers yarn included

Instructors: Jeanette Mannin from A Hidden Gem Alpaca Farm  and

In this class you will start by learning the parts of the loom. Then we will quickly more on to  warp your loom.  

You will soon be throwing the shuttle from side to side, over and under, (this is the weft weave) creating a plain weave and finished product will be a scarf.
