yarn kits

Season 2 - Colour & Design · 1 reply · 136 views · 2 followers

Do we need to purchase the yarn kits for each season to properly do this course? There are quite a few and they really add up quick! I don't have a big stash - and I want to get the most out of this course - but $449 for a season? wow! JJ

Hi Jo Ellen,

Jane encourages weavers to use what they have on their stash. If you're working on Season 2 episodes, these use 8/2 cotton as most weavers will have some in their stash. You can change the colours with what you have. I would start with Season 2 if you are familiar with Season 1 Foundation and go from there. Season 2 is so fun and there is so much to learn in these lessons.

Thanks! I'm working through season 1 now, I haven't woven in 30 years and was self taught - so loving organized instruction. I've just re-built a used loom so I'm learning Janes method using it for the first time. LOVE her tying on method! I'm not dreading that anymore!

I got the towel kit to do from season one and will work through that. I wanted to see what I needed to properly do season 2, instead of just listening and rushing through things as I'm prone to do. Thanks for your advice! Jo

Good on you to re-build a used loom! They are treasures these old looms :)
Is that the Cotton Boucle tea towel kit? If so, that's a great choice for a back at the loom after 30 years!
Here's a list of the yarns for Season 2 for when you are ready, and hopefully you've got some in your stash:

And a huge welcome back to weaving Jo Ellen!
