At Lazykate Textiles we celebrate the connection between the crafts. So come with us and learn to dye your fibre, then spin it, knit with it, weave with it, embroider on it - let your creativity run completely wild!
We run a variety of workshops to suit different ways of learning, these include daily, two day, weekly and online workshops.
We also sell Kromski looms and accessories and offer an appointment system where you are welcome to come to our studio to try out which loom will suit you best.
Who are we?
Lazykate Textiles is Cathy and Jessamy, a mum and daughter team. We live between the Liverpool marina and our home in Lancashire.
We want to share our passion for colour, textiles and craft with anyone who will listen. By practising these vital crafts, spinning, weaving and dyeing we keep skills alive and help keep us and others sane in an unstable time.
We hope to provide you with the skills and materials you need to express yourself and create beautiful things, we absolutely know you can.
Our yarns are British wool spun by small producers in Peru who give back to the community by supporting families and providing education for local children. We have mainly used acid dyes for our yarns but are in the process of moving over to naturally dyed yarns to reduce our environmental impact
For our spinning workshops we use British fibre sourced in England and breed specific. We are currently using fibre sourced from the Wool Circle, a cooperative based around Hebden Bridge

What people say about our workshops:
"It's been a wonderful learning experience of such an amazing subject. There is a flexibility in the teaching to help everyone no matter what their different skills might be. I found the course excellent and would buy any future courses from Lazykate Textiles without hesitation

I had the most wonderful two days on this course and learned so much. I had never touched a loom before but came away with enough knowledge and confidence to continue my weaving journey
Helen *****
Cathy and Jesame were such great hosts/teachers. Down to earth/friendly and knowledgeable . They put us at ease immediately and created a very supportive learning environment.
