Hand-Weaving Techniques: Design Textile Accessories by Cassandra Sabo

Discover the joy of weaving with Cassandra 🌿

I’m delighted to share my online weaving course with Domestika: Hand-Weaving Techniques: Design Textile Accessories. This course distils over 10 years of teaching and studio practice at The Oxford Weaving Studio into an inspiring, step-by-step learning experience you can follow at your own pace. 🎥 Watch the trailer below to see what you’ll learn, what you’ll create, and how we’ll work together.

What you’ll learn

In clear, practical lessons you’ll learn how to:

Set up and weave confidently on The Oxford Frame Loom (or a similar frame loom)
Choose yarns, colours and textures to express your personal style
Combine tapestry and plain-weave techniques for depth, structure and beautiful finishes
Design and make textile accessories (including a cushion/cover and coordinated pieces)
Finish professionally so your work looks polished and display-ready

By the end, you’ll have a finished piece, a toolkit of core techniques, and the confidence to keep creating.

Why learn with me

As a designer-weaver and founder of The Oxford Weaving Studio, my teaching blends technique with creative confidence. I guide you gently but thoroughly—so you understand why as well as how. My goal is for you to feel supported, inspired and proud of what you make.

This course was created by me, Cassandra Sabo — designer, weaver and founder of The Oxford Weaving Studio and Cassandra Sabo Designs. I’m passionate about helping others discover their creativity through weaving, whether in the studio, online, or at home on The Oxford Frame Loom.

Featuring The Oxford Frame Loom

Throughout the course I demonstrate on The Oxford Frame Loom, which I designed to be intuitive, portable and versatile. Many students discover the loom through this course and later choose it for their home studio. Curious? You can learn more or order yours here on my website—it’s a perfect companion to keep exploring after the course.
