Weaving The Downs: A Beginners Weaving Workshop
Suitable for adults.
Discover the gentle rhythm of weaving in this hands-on day workshop inspired by the colours and textures of the South Downs. Led by our Museum Educators, this relaxed introduction is perfect for complete beginners or anyone looking to reconnect with making.
Using tabletop looms and a selection of naturally dyed yarns - coloured by our own garden team - you’ll learn the basics of weaving and begin to create your own small textile piece. We’ll start the day with a visit to our Dye Garden, where you’ll see some of the plants used to produce the hues you’ll be working with.
After lunch, we’ll spend the afternoon experimenting with different fibres, yarns and textures, allowing time to develop confidence on the loom. By the end of the day, you’ll leave with a finished woven sample.
Lunch and Materials Included.
