The Textiles Table Loom Badge will teach participants Health and Safety relating to, and effective use of the 8-shaft table loom. 

Participants will learn how to achieve a plain weave and a twill weave on pre-threaded table looms. Due to the significant time commitment weaving requires, the induction will verbally address planning a plain and twill weave fabric, including desired size, material choice, weave structure, calculating sett, warp length, winding the warp, loading the loom, threading the heddles acording to a pattern draft, tying off and tensioning the warp, weaving, removing and finishing a project. 

Participants are required to wear enclosed footwear and tie back long hair.

To book an induction time, if none are available, see staff in Textiles Studio in room F102 or email artdesigntextiles@unsw.edu.au
