About class

Date: September 8 & 9, 2025 

Time: 9am- 4pm

Talk about a fiber that gets a bad rap.  Rayon chenille is fiber weavers will often avoid or put off until they build up to the confidence to take it on. As an instructor I’ve often pondered why students shy away, and perhaps it’s nothing more than water cooler talk. As a new weaver you begin talking with other weavers who are so generous with their knowledge and their opinions that it becomes doctrine to follow. Certainly, if a weaver with 20 years of experience tells you that a material is tricky… you know to avoid it as a beginner. But now just might be that time for the veil to be lifted for you to find the total joy and luxury of chenille.

Students will be introduced to the unique characteristics of chenille and how it is produced. As weaver’s we will learn how to calculate the appropriate sett for the structure that we will be weaving, anticipate shrinkage, weaving beat you should be using for this unique fiber and most importantly finishing. Join us for this fun workshop to build your confidence to take on Chenille for the first time through the weaving of a scarf.

This workshop is designed to plan and execute a rayon chenille scarf. Materials are not included with your tuition as each project is unique and will utilize a different number of colors and yardage requirements. A wide range of colors are available in our store for purchase.
