Rigid Heddle Weaving Workshop – 5-Hour (All Materials Included)All Levels Welcome

Times: 1000-1500

Location: The Hub, Burra Kirk, Church of Scotland (direction to follow)

Join us for a 5-hour weaving workshop where you’ll learn the fundamentals of weaving on a rigid heddle loom. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to refresh your skills, this class is designed to meet you where you are.

You’ll be guided step-by-step through the weaving process, from a brief demonstration on how to warp the loom and choosing your yarns, to weaving techniques and finishing your piece. By the end of the day, you'll take home a beautiful woven snood that you created yourself.

All materials and use of equipment are included. Looms will be pre-threaded for beginners to jump right in, but those interested in learning the warping process can also get hands-on experience, if they let me know in advance.

Expect a relaxed, supportive environment with plenty of room for creativity and questions.

What’s included:

Use of a rigid heddle loom

A curated selection of yarns and tools

Printed handouts for continued learning

Light refreshments

What’s not included:

Lunch (please bring lunch)

Duration: 5 hours (with a break for lunch)

Skill Level: All levels welcome, no prior experience needed

Come explore the joy of weaving and leave with the skills and confidence to continue on your own!
