Kilgrimol Crafts: Weaving for Yule

Come and join local Living History enthusiast Heather as she brings to life crafts from the Northwest's Heritage. Demonstrating the slowly vanishing skills that went into producing our clothing using natural materials. Inspired by the Heritage Crafts Red List, we’re focusing on endangered crafts. We'll supply • All materials and tuition • Hot/cold drinks and tasty snacks This month So you’ve been out fieldwalking and gathering fleece, or you’ve saved up all your woolly odds and ends from various projects. Now you wonder what to do with the squishy stash of fibre that’s peeking out from your craft box. Using a mini loom/ dinkle inkle or even a cereal box we will make a Yule themed woven wall hanging sample that not only uses up textile scraps but creates a visually appealing fabric. Join us to explore this very rewarding and sustainable craft. This session is in our upstairs workshop space. We have a lift! Otherwise it is fourteen steps turn a corner and two more steps. There is an accessible loo on the same floor.
