Book me for a half-day or more of weaving at my yurt-studio in Blanefield.* Generally I ask people to book first and then we can arrange a date. Prices listed are for weekdays only - if you'd like to book for a weekend please get in touch first (I charge 1.5x rates for weekends). Beginners tend to need a full day to weave a small basic basket, two or more days if you want to make something more substantial and cover more techniques (e.g. shopping basket, Moses basket). Or book a half-day if you just want to dip your toe and make something small like a bird feeder or platter. You can flick through the photos to see a range of things you could make. I also teach improvers - get in touch and we can discuss what you want to learn to boost your weaving skills and know-how. I'm happy to recommend things we could weave, or to take your lead if you've got baskets you'd like to make, or certain techniques to learn. Please feel free to contact me if you've got any questions before booking. *I can also travel to teach at your place of residence, or a venue near you - please contact me to discuss. Show more
