Swatching for Color and Texture on the Pin Loom - Alanna Wilcox - Sun. 8/2
Sunday, August 2 2:00-5:00, 3 hours About this class: Pin looms are quick, portable, and fun, but they are also powerful little tools for making confident decisions about color and texture before you commit to a bigger project. In this workshop, Alanna Wilcox will guide you through creating four distinct swatches on a single loom by working in quadrants. This approach makes it easy to see how colors shift depending on placement, contrast, and value, and how texture changes the feel of a woven fabric.
