Join us for an introductory Spinning and Weaving workshop on the Land using locally sourced wools and ancestral hand craft techniques. Using a wooden drop spindle you will learn to spin your own yarn and weave it onto a simple easy-to-make loom, creating your own land inspired cloth. We will explore the ritual of craft, the vital lessons of slow making and the beauty inherent in coming together to create. There will be space to expand your creative expression, learn skills that you can later develop and connect to the elements that surround us, paying homage to their life-giving nature. These skills can then be taken away to continue the learning journey at home and in nature.
