Admission: £70 plus £5 for materials
Taking our inspiration from the seasonal colours observed during a short walk down to the bridge just below Farfield Mill (weather permitting), we will develop the tapestry techniques of horizontal and vertical stripes, using them to shift colour through the use of pick and pick and horizontal line. This is the third of three workshops exploring colour techniques in woven tapestry. While it’s not necessary to sign up for all three, attending more than one will enable you to build on the skills gained in earlier workshops. Suitable for beginners.
Bring your own equipment if you have it, but there will also be looms warped up ready to go and a range of weft yarn for you to use. Additional equipment will be available for sale, should you wish to continue weaving after the workshop day (up to around £75).
