I am available to teach workshops for a variety of skill levels and ages.
My ethos is that with any of the techniques we cover, there are no mistakes.
Only potential for new and exciting designs.
Past workshops have included:
Rope-making
Through the use of ones hands and with the aid of fun, collaborative tools, rope-making is a
process that all ages, abilities, experience and backgrounds. It is a great introduction to the world
of textiles, and also facilitates team building and communication skills.
Braid: A workshop on tools and braids
From the popular craft ‘scoubidou’ to intricate Japanese-style braiding techniques, all ages and skill
levels have the potential to make easy, yet beautiful braided cord, jewellery and artwork using
self-made disks or tools.
Darning
Exploring both invisible and visible mending techniques, this workshop showcases the history of
mended clothing as well as how it is used in contemporary practices. It is a skill that everyone should
know!
Crochet as 3D Printing
Crochet provides the opportunity to quickly build three-dimensional forms, a task which is difficult with most textile techniques. Building knot by knot, an object can be created either with careful planning or through improvisation.
