SUMMARY:An Introduction to Tablet Weaving with Sue Day
DESCRIPTION:Braid weaving is a fascinating craft – such complex patterns can be made with a seemingly simple\, portable loom. But perhaps that’s how our ancestors always wove? Connect with your inner Viking and enjoy this absorbing way of weaving for a day. \nDuring this workshop\, expert tutor and dyer\, Sue Day will show you how to make a braid by turning the tablets in different directions to create the final design. \nWe will learn how to thread the tablets and weave a design with a triangle motif. We’ll explore the effect of colour on the pattern\, how the threading affects the final outcome and what the possibilities are of using different shaped cards. \nSue will even guide us in the process of designing our own braiding patterns. This workshop will give you a good grounding in the tablet weaving with handouts to refer to in the future. You may find yourself addicted! \nSue Day will provide all equipment and materials\, so you can just relax and enjoy the weaving. \nAs usual\, The Loom Shed will provide you with a nourishing lunch\, plenty of tea and coffee with a sweet treat or two!

SUMMARY:Learn to Spin with Amanda Hannaford
DESCRIPTION:This is one not to miss! The very experienced spinner and highly skilled tutor and author\, Amanda Hannaford is coming to The Loom Shed to teach us how to spin right from the very beginning! Try your hand at carding\, using a spindle and a spinning wheel. \nIf you’re completely new to spinning\, but always wanted to have a go\, this workshop is for you. Amanda will start by introducing you to a large basket of clean wool straight from the sheep’s back\, and all the tools you need to turn the wool into useable yarn. \nWe will use specially designed wire brushes to turn the wool in to fluffy rolls and then add twist using a hand spindle to make the loose fibres into yarn. There will be spinning wheels on hand to try\, in case you’d like to take your newfound hobby further\, and we’ll also experiment with mill-prepared wool in case you don’t know any friendly sheep! \nThe Loom Shed will provide a delicious lunch\, plenty of teas and coffee and a sweet treat when needed! \n

SUMMARY:Introduction to Weaving with Louise Cottey
DESCRIPTION:Have you always wanted to try weaving? Or have you tried weaving with a frame or rigid heddle loom\, but never tried a four shaft loom? This is the perfect opportunity. Take a morning for yourself and relax with us at The Loom Shed. \nWe will set up the loom for you and give you all the resources and tuition you need to explore the relationship between colour\, texture and structure in woven textiles. Learn the tricks of the trade to make a fabric that feels nice and doesn’t pull in at the sides. Do be warned though\, this may leave you wanting to weave more – we certain hope so! \nFull tuition\, equipment\, and yarn will be provided with plenty of tea\, coffee and cake. \n  \n
