August Workshop

On 10 and 11 August the weather turned cold and miserable so it was a good weekend to be indoors at Bobbin Cottage where we could concentrate on a 'home grown' workshop which covered a variety of topics in a variety of complexity.  Setts also varied from 8 epi to an inadvertent 32 epi.  Three reeds were re-sleyed during the weekend so a bit was learned about setts as well as about twills, colour and weave and colour blending. Most looms were pre-threaded with a mini-gamp - usually just three threadings so nothing too scary.  More about the weaving later but in the meantime here are the nine participants at work on the 8 looms available.
