SKILL LEVELS

Please evaluate your skill level not only for your total weaving experience, but also for your experience in the techniques offered in the class you are considering.

 

Advanced Beginner

Weavers are becoming proficient in basic weaving techniques including over/under weaving, start/stop weaving, twining, and rim lashing. They are learning to control shape. They will be introduced to new pattern weaves such as twill, different twining methods, and rim and handle finish variations. If you are taking a class in a material you have never used, you are a beginner in that class.

 

Intermediate

Weavers are gaining proficiency in weaving techniques. They have no trouble setting up bases, twining, over/under weaves and rims using the materials offered for a class.

 

Advanced

Weavers are proficient or have mastered weaving techniques. They are ready to take on more challenging projects. Teachers depend on students to have achieved this skill level to attend their class. Basic skills are not reviewed due to time constraints.
