Two Shuttle Shuffle with Sarah Noggle – G25070208
Our online booking system is down. Please call 505.685.4881 or 505.685.1019 to register for this workshop. We apologize for the inconvenience.
This class is geared toward beginners who want to learn the essentials of weaving. It is also good for those wanting to refresh their weaving skills. We will wind a warp, dress the loom and weave a finished project.
Tools, yarns and equipment, including a floor loom are provided. We will do color studies using a light, a bright and a dark yarn and then weave the first half of a pillow with your choice of colors. The next part of the weaving will use two shuttles and two colors for a log cabin pattern and the second half of the pillow will be woven with these two shuttles and two weights of yarn in a rep-weave pattern.
These are different looks with one warp, two shuttles and the color vision that each student brings to the loom.
Throughout the week we will cover weaving vocabulary, fibers and sources, as well as tricks and techniques for enjoying the process.

Sarah NoggleSarah Noggle finds inspiration in the colors and textures driving across the country and at home in the hills and forests of southern Indiana. Watching children light up when a math problem is solved using fiber, thread and weaving has fed her decades long enthusiasm of teaching fiber arts. She is a textile conservator having hands on ancient wool tapestries, a collection of 16th century silk fragments and the Indiana 1954 Milan High School regional basketball winner’s banner. (Check out the movie “Hoosiers”).
Combining all of the above and in collaboration with LEAF and the Lotus World Music Festival she has co-curated textile shows , World Blues: Shades of Indigo, Seeing Red: World Textiles and Around the Body, Around the World. Everything we wear was once a raw fiber.
