Weaving Studio

The Weaving Studio is a vibrant, tactile space focused on creating high-quality textiles. Teamwork is at the heart of the workshop, with each person’s strengths and abilities valued and celebrated.

Within the workshop everyone has the chance to be involved in each step of the weaving process. Whether choosing colours for the latest warp, winding warps, setting up looms or weaving, every individual can take part and be celebrated for their creativity and skill. We focus on ability, not disability.

Alongside core weaving, we explore a range of related techniques, including:

  • Loom setup and warping
  • Rag rug making
  • Finishing and edging techniques
  • Product making, including sewing and assembly
