Knitting is such a wonderful hobby. In just a few evenings you can create wearable projects that last a lifetime.

In this beginning weaving class with Fabricate Atlanta, we learn how to create a woven wall hanging from start to finish.  Students wind a warp onto a tapestry loom, weave using both yarn and roving, and complete a finished wall hanging.  The loom is provided, and the course fee includes all materials.  These wall hangings are great to give as a gift, or keep for yourself!
