    Start Weaving with Confidence: Materials, Setup, and Inspiration  for Beginners
    Latest blog post

    Start Weaving with Confidence: Materials, Setup, and Inspiration for Beginners

    Starting your first weaving can feel both exciting and overwhelming, so many colors, textures, and tools to choose from! Setting up your materials is part of the creative process itself. Every yarn, fiber, and thread you choose carries its own energy and texture, shaping the way your final piece feels, both visually and emotionally. In my Weaving for Beginners course on Domestika, I teach you how to use bold colors and organic patterns to express yourself through thread and texture. Before you start, here’s a simple guide to setting up your materials and finding what feels right for you.
