In this two-day workshop you will learn a miniature of the technique of band weaving, which was used by traditional bedouin women. This hands-on workshop will introduce you to the basics of creating a weaving pattern, preparing the band reed, and learning how to weave. The pattern is created by using different colors of warp inspired by traditional bedouin belts or straps.
