Floor Loom Weaving is a three-day class for beginners. Participants will learn to weave on a harnessed floor loom. The cost is $259 and participants will leave with at least one finished product: a table runner or a scarf.
In-person or virtual
All materials included. Participants may bring their own loom or use one of ours at no additional charge.
Participants will learn to warp and to weave, completing a sampler scarf or table runner to take home. We are open until 5:30 pm each day, and participants are welcome to stay and practice or work on their project.
Please bring lunch each day, beverages are provided. There is a class size minimum of two, and a maximum of 6 participants. Our classes go a degree farther than most, and teach some history of fiber arts, and practical technology. As well as being augmented by hands on learning tools available in the Educational Farm Museum.
Shepherd’s Cross offers weaving and fiber arts classes year-round, on an individual or group basis. Shepherd’s Cross is an accredited Agritourism facility, an Oklahoma Museum Association member, and a Made in Oklahoma Company that processes the only Animal Welfare Approved fiber sold in the U.S. (chemical free, hormone free, free range, all natural). Shepherd’s Cross hosts a mini wool mill, processing the wool from their own sheep raised on site.
Heart of the Shepherd is the non-profit organization (501-C3) that operates at the farm and establishes wool mills in remote, impoverished areas around the world. Heart of the Shepherd teaches Biblical references to the harvest, the animals, farming, and gardening.
Shepherd’s Cross Farm Store is open Tuesday through Saturday 8:30 – 5:30, year-round (closed some holidays).
