Learning Overshot

In January I decided to sign up for an online class covering the structure of overshot.  It was offered by Janet Dawson whom I’d previously met via her joint color class with Tien Chiu.  The class was entitled “Unraveling Overshot” and turned out to be well worth the money!  I ended up weaving five placemats using different colors and patterns.  Along the way I learned so much that I’m going to have to go back and re-read the course material to take full advantage of all of the details it provided about the structure. 

Check out Janet’s site, Weaving with Janet Dawson, for helpful weaving hints as well as current information on her upcoming classes.  She also has a yarn shop (The Bobbin Tree) which is a great resource for yarns and other weaving accessories.
