*As a precaution due to escalated concerns regarding the Coronavirus outbreak, the workshop held on 15/02/2020 will be cancelled. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused. Observe and learn about weave structures over a magnifying glass and under expert guidance! Weaving is the interlacing of two sets of threads – warp and weft – at right angles to create textiles. This simple but flexible principle is used to construct the endless variety of cloths we encounter every day. This course led by tutor Albert Chan will introduce 4 fundamental weave structures: plain, twill, satin and Jacquard. Participants will first analyse fabric samples with a magnifying glass, then learn to recreate the structure through paper strip weavings and draft notation, the standard graphical representation of cloth. - Suitable for ages 12 or above. - All tools and materials are provided. - Free admission, deposit ($50) will be fully refunded upon attendance to the workshop. Date: 11/1/2020, 15/2/2020 Capacity: 6 Language: Cantonese & English ​*Registration required: www.mill6chat.org/visit CHAT Winter Programme 2019: https://timable.com/event/1859517 The above information is provided by CityProg Partner Centre for Heritage, Arts and Textile (CHAT).
