Rya Weaving Workshop

Weaver Maryanne Moodie leads us through a wonderful workshop on how to build a rya weaving. In this box we are sending along roving (spun in partnership with a mom & pop wool carding house in Oregon) plus all of the neutral alpaca & sheep’s wool yarns needed to build this beautiful weaving – six in total! In addition, we’ve partnered with a husband & wife wood working team from San Diego, California to create a large and sturdy wooden loom, shuttle and sword so that members can complete this project plus many others.
