Verified ownerI am a complete beginner in spinning. I was shown patience and encouragement throughout the day. I even managed to take home some reasonable looking spun wool, I was very pleased with myself. Thanks so much 😊😊
Verified ownerThank you Cathy and Jean, for your patience and help today. Although I found it hard to do you have lots of acknowledge to help along the way.
Verified ownerA lovely atmosphere, everyone was friendly and Cathy was very patient.
Verified ownerI signed up to the workshop to get my rigid heddle loom going.
The workshop did exactly that, but on top of it I got lots of tips and hints in a great atmosphere. We made a scarf (still on my loom because I wanted to make it longer), and now I want to do more :)
Cathy and Jessamy (there was another girl but I may spell her name wrong… Ethany?) were great and very helpful, so it is quite likely that they’ll see more of me. I recommend this workshop to people who want to have a go at spinning.
Verified ownerWe were a group of 5 and had a lovely day, Jessamy was friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the lovely refreshments provided through the day. The day went very quickly and we were all really pleased with our efforts at weaving. Our only disappointment was that the finished items were not long enough to be able to wear. Did we talk too much, not weave fast enough.... or even both?!? Thank you for the experience.
We have a good selection of hand-dyed yarn in various colours, as well as weaving kits and classes to get you started on your creative journey.
