Using Pick up Sticks - Sampler

The complicated-looking patterns can be achieved with relative ease. Make a beautiful sampler while mastering this technique and learning many lace-like patterns including windowpane, alternating warp or weft floats, and inlay.
Homework: None
Supplies to bring: Measuring tape, 2 12” wider rulers or pick up sticks, 12” x 3” piece of light colored cardboard or manila file folder, 400 yards of worsted weight yarn in a solid color that is smooth, strong, non-hairy, and at least 2 ply.

Manipulating your Warp Threads for Dynamic Weaving - Scarf
Class Level: Advanced Beginner
Description: By twisting or wrapping your warp yarns you can weave distinctive textures and patterns in your cloth. Learn to weave lace-like open areas as parts of a design throughout the fabric or as a notable edge treatment. You’ll learn how to make leno, brooks bouquet, and other fancy patterns. If you’ve been looking for ways to add more interest to your weaving, these techniques will get you there. You too can create cloth that is visually stunning.
