New for 2011 - Have you ever wanted to try weaving completing a project with yarn, before having to purchase a loom? Well Lazy D Farm has just the workshop for you. Join us for an all day Saturday workshop that is being scheduled all through the year. The looms will be completely ready for you to begin the day's project, we call it “Princess Weaving”. At the end of the day, the project will be cut off the loom and you take it home! Of course, if you just fall in love with weaving and want to continue making one of a kind “heirloom homemade gifts”, Lazy D Farm can accommodate you as we sell Kromski Harp Rigid Heddle Looms. Classes are also offered on “Beginning Weaving” (see details below) which includes learning to ‘warp’ your loom, figure what heddle to use for your yarn size and calculating the amount of yarn to purchase (I know sounds confusing, but this will make sense after the class).
The “Princess Weaving” workshops will held on Saturday, 9:00 a.m. -4: 00 p.m. Cost is $95.00 which includes the yarn for the project. If you have your own yarn, the cost will be $75.00. Bring a sack lunch. Each workshop size is limited to 5 participants. Ages 8 and up. Call 770 479 2300 or email dobsongcj@windstream.net for more details.
