Special Notes:

(1) Weaving a Scottish Tam - We will make (or at least start) a Scotish tam that is woven in a single piece.  No sewing involved!  You will have something to take home with you.  Bring a skein of yarn, any type fiber, but I would stay away from very nubby yarn.  If you want a bulky yarn, bring some of a coordinating color in regular knitting worsted for your warp.  I will have some yarn available, but colors may be limited.  All other materials provided.


If you would like to teach, we will let you! Please contact Lady Edain ingen Raghailligh ben MacDonald (Keri Peardon) to arrange your class.
