Please have the following on hand for this class:

• Webcam helpful though not required
• Pre-warped inkle loom with 3 Colors of 3/2 or 5/2 Cotton, draft below Click here. The more contrast the colors have, the easier it will be to see the pattern threads on the ground warp (represented in black)  Odd numbered warps get a heddle, even numbered warps do not get a heddle
• A small belt shuttle, like a stick shuttle except with a more tapered edge along one side, pre-wound with weft.
• A sheet of graph paper and a couple of contrasting colored pencils ( like black and red)  Note: there are a number of sites that allow you to print a PDF of graph paper for free.
