Rigid Heddle Skill Builder #7: Pushing Plain Weave
$ 225.00 USD
You can now experience the seventh installment of the Rigid Heddle Skill Builder series as a stand-alone purchase! Designed by Jennifer E. Kwong, this collection invites you into a world of playful curiosity where Plain Weave becomes a canvas for shifting textures, tones, and structures. This series includes enough yarn for three projects. After the projects are completed, you will have leftover yarn which can be used for further sampling and experimenting with the techniques learned.
This collection was originally published as a part of our Rigid Heddle Skill Builder Subscription Box series. Please note, this listing is for the Pushing Plain Weave collection only—if you'd like to learn more about the subscription, you can do so here.
