Kilim is the word used to describe slit weave tapestry, but it has become a noun through constant usageand is in its basic form one of the most simple weaving methods. Similarities can be found in flat weave rugs woven in Turkey, South America, North America (Navajo Indian), Asia and even China,
During your weaving course in Cumbria you will experience how to dye yarn (predominantly indigo), how to set up a warp on an upright Navajo style loom and how to weave a small rug in the slit weave tradition.
Join a full course (five to seven days) suitable for both beginners and experienced weavers, or a three day refresher course.
