Weft


Harrisville Shetland wool yarn (what I use in the course in colors: Peacock, Charcoal, and Chianti)

Or anything you want!

Recommended: At least 2 needles, but you really can’t have too many!


Online:


Traditional straight tapestry needles

Bent tapestry needles

Extra-long tapestry needle


Brick and Mortar:


Michaels or JoAnne Fabrics. Found with crochet hooks and knitting needles.


Scissors & yarn snips


Singer yarn snips (the ones I am using in the course)

Generic yarn snips (these are great too and I use them when I travel for classes)

Fabric scissors


Brick and Mortar:


Michaels, JoAnne Fabrics, or anywhere that sells fabric


Tapestry beaters


Navajo weaving fork (the first one I bought)

Small metal tine tapestry beater (my favorite!)

Double-ended tapestry beater

Alternatively, you can use any comb or fork you have laying around! I normally use a 7-inch comb that I got from Target.
