Hello! I am a new weaver and just wanted to say that I’m super excited to have found this school, and Jane. With every new craft, I always look for an expert that I can look up to and admire. I think I have found that here! I am also a man, which seems to be quite rare in the weaving and fiber arts works in general. I also spin, knit, crochet, and have an undergrad in viola performance. Looking forward to learning more!
Thanks for everything you do
Sometimes gremlins like to have fun on the website! I wrote you a note of welcome a number of hours ago Andrew, and poof!, it’s not here. Sooo - welcome to Jane’s School of Weaving, You’ve certainly come to the right place to learn to weave from the very basics to - before you know it - confidently taking all that you’ve learned and starting to create your own unique cloth! There are thousands of men who are amazing weavers around the world - you’ve just joined their ranks. 👏
As you learn more about the history of weaving you will find that there are many male masters of weaving including Peter Collingwood and his son Jason Collingwood among many others. Welcome to the weaving world.
