Wasco Native people are known for their full-turn twining technique and beautiful geometric designs and motifs. For thousands of years, the Wascopum lived along the Columbia River, known for fishing and trade. Students will weave a small Wasco Sally Bag learning the "traditional start", as well as the traditional full-turn twining techniques used to create geometric images. The workshop will cover the following: Wefts, Warps, Tension, “’Z” twining, and Full-turn twining, and traditional “braid” rim. Ideal for students with some twining or weaving experience. Traditional materials will be shown in examples but the class project will be made with modern materials.
