Workshop: Have a go at weaving

Try your hand at stick weaving and learn about simple weaving techniques on our table and heddle looms. Our experts will explain the basic principles of weaving with colour and texture.
The Kennet Valley Guild of Weavers, Spinners & Dyers was formed in 1977 and has a growing membership of 80. Our members are dedicated to a range of textile skills, that include core skills in weaving, spinning and dyeing, with associated crafts such as braiding, knitting, lace-making and more. Experience ranges from beginner to expert and new members are always welcome to join our group of enthusiasts. The Guild meets once a month at St. Mary’s Church Hall, Greenham. www.kennet-valley-guild.com
These workshops are suitable for adults and children (accompanied by an adult).
