Fibonacci Thirteen

Adirondack Folk School 51 Main St., Lake Luzerne

Barbara designed this basket inspired by the Fibonacci sequence of numbers. The basket is woven on a Shaker Cathead base with a two-by-two twill in natural reed. Students will weave the sides in a contrasting color reed to emphasize the 13 spirals which the pattern will create. Hand-shaping techniques will be stressed, allowing students to produce a beautifully proportioned piece. Barbara will lead a discussion on "The Nature of Numbers," a talk on where the Fibonacci sequence exists in nature.

Rugs from Rags

Adirondack Folk School 51 Main St., Lake Luzerne

No weaving experience is necessary! The looms are dressed and ready to go, all you need to do is bring your creative spirit and to leave with a finished one-of-a-kind rug. Students will have a choice of making a traditional Rag Rug using recycled fabric strips or making a Sock Rug using remnants from a sock factory. Colors and choices of fabric and remnants vary from class to class depending on availability. The rugs are 24" wide, and up to 45" long.
