The lirette is a traditional technique for recovering and upcycling used textiles. Old fabrics are cut into strips and then creatively rewoven to produce items such as rugs, cushions, bags, blankets, and even clothing. The workshop is divided into three stages: a theoretical part on the materials used, followed by the preparation of the lirette based on the project. In the afternoon, you will weave a fabric that you can take home.
9 AM to 5 PM with a break at noon.
(Bring your lunch).
Participants will weave the lirette prepared in the morning using used textiles (you can bring your old clothes and scraps of fabric). The frames or looms are already assembled with a warp.

After the meeting of an elderly lady weaver, I started weaving as a teenager, as a self-taught enthusiast. After a long break, I stumbled across an ARM loom at a flea market! I immediately started weaving again with the desire to learn a bit more; so I started training as a weaver at Filambule with Danièle Mussard. I've finished the course and feel I've got everything to discover! Now I'll be able to take the time to learn more, experiment and explore this infinite world of yarns, materials and colours... with enthusiasm!
