Anne Field, a popular teacher and author from New Zealand, will be presenting a workshop on collapse weave in April, sponsored by Black Sheep Handweavers Guild.
COLLAPSE WEAVE — THE MAGIC OF WOOL (2 Day Workshop): In this workshop students will weave and finish several samples to gain an understanding of the structure of collapse weave. Students will bring their looms already warped. Samples will be woven and discussions on the relative values of active and passive yarns will lead to an understanding of why and when collapse happens. Students will then choose whether to continue sampling, or to weave a scarf.
