In this workshop we will be pushing the boundaries of traditional Huck Lace. For generations Huck Lace has been woven in cotton or linen with warp and weft threads of the same size and color, allowing the warp floats and weft floats to be the focus of the pattern. When you add Color and Weave theory to this familiar threading, a whole new world of patterning possibilities comes to life.
