This cedar weaving workshop, over four days, participants will work with both yellow cedar and red cedar bark, learning how to properly prepare, process, soften, split, and organize the materials before weaving begins.

Participants will explore three different methods for starting a cedar hat, allowing them to choose the approach that best suits their weaving style while building a strong foundation in weaving techniques. Instruction includes both two-strand twining and three-strand twining, with guidance provided throughout the weaving process as participants shape and complete their own cedar hat.
