Beadwoven Ropes with Mara Colecchia

This workshop teaches the creation of playful beaded ropes that can be worn like lariat necklaces, knotted on one’s décolleté. Colecchia will demonstrate three specific tubular weaving techniques: Chenille, Peyote and Cubic Right Angle, as well as how to transition from one to another. Colecchia will discuss her beading style, showcasing different types of lariats, to stimulate a creative and personal approach to the classic beaded rope.

Some experience required: Basic beading or stitching skills are helpful and advanced beginners are welcome.
