Greetings,
If you are planning on taking the hands on portion of the class here are a few supplies you should bring in addition to a loom: Several skeins of Embroidery floss to make your heddles, at least 2 colors of yarn to weave, scissors. As far as yarn is concerned, avoid anything that is really fuzzy like a worsted, it will pill together while you're weaving and gets really annoying which can be frustrating when you're learning. I recommend a smooth yarn to start with; something like crochet thread (nice for belts & trim), embroidery floss (for trim), or Peaches & Cream Yarn (makes a nice heavy belt or trim).
