07 February 2019 • Adventures on the Inkle Loom
The workshop was well planned and organised. All the materials were provided and we were encouraged to work outside of our comfort colours. The content was suitable for me as a total beginner, but also enough variations to make it challenging. It is exciting to learn about different types of weaving.
03 February 2019 • Spinning Flax and Hemp
Spinning flax was greatly motivating. I had a stash, I'm spinning its remnants up so I can do flax and silk top next. Hemp spun well although a little rougher than flax fibre on the day. Dyeing was great and the colours when the yarns were dry, fantastic. A great 2 days trying new techniques and sharing ideas, stressless.

Such a great class. It was a such a chill but informative morning, with patient, attentive, knowledgeable instructors. Thanks so much!!
