My love of weaving began with a small Spears loom as a child but it wasn’t until I began my textile degree at Central Saint Martins London, that I really became drawn to weaving For many years after graduating I explored and experimented with woven structures and exhibited my work widely. Alongside weaving I taught FE & HE textiles until I took time out to be with my young family. In recent years I have established my mobile weave studio and love introducing weaving to anyone and everyone.

Hannah Willmore reviewed: Weave a Scarf in a Day - Harrogate

"I really enjoyed this workshop. Anne was patient and supportive and struck a really good balance between letting us practice for ourselves and stepping in to steer where needed. I was pleasantly surprised by the scarf I'd made by the end of the day and will definitely be weaving again in future. Yarn Etc was a lovely setting for the workshop too, and browsing the wool was a fun first step."

Cath Rowson reviewed: Weave a scarf in a day - handloom weaving

"A great day weaving! The tuition was excellent and we were able to complete the weaving of a scarf from warping to finishing off without any sense of being rushed and with time for any questions along the way. The demonstration of each aspect was extremely helpful. A fabulous venue too! I would definitely recommend the course to anyone interested in or starting out on the weaving journey."

Bob Makin reviewed: Weave a scarf in a day - handloom weaving

"Anne's course was both instructive as well as fun to be at. All the necessary equipment was at hand. It was an open time for questions about the weaving, as well as other related topics. The Craft House served us well also. Small size of class gave plenty of time for all the students to ask and receive help or instruction where needed. Anne's openness around her own history of weaving made the day not only enlightening, but also personable. You also ended up with a scarf at the end of it, along with further printed instructions for the correct finishing of the work. An excellent day of crafting and an excellent tutor."

h Moore reviewed: Weave a Scarf in a Day - Harrogate

"Been on a few courses but this was up in the top course. Anne was friendly and welcoming. She was full of information but did it all in small steps. The course had good time use and we made our scarves in the time which we were all delighted with. Got lots individually as well. Would love to go on the September course too. Anne sent us home with a brilliant sheet for later to finish the scarf by perfecting and tweaking. It came with a helpful needle and over of help with any questions via email. lovely small group too. Big thank you for a great course Anne."

Penny Henshaw reviewed: Weave a patterned scarf in a day - HARROGATE

"As a person with not a lot of crafting skills I came away feeling quite proud of what I did. Anne was a brilliant mentor and always at hand to assist and answer questions. I strongly recommend the course and it was a day I shall not forget spent with friends who kindly bought me the day as a birthday gift."

Jane Dean reviewed: Weave a scarf in a day - handloom weaving

"What a lovely, relaxing day spent learning how to weave a simple scarf on a rigid heddle loom. You choose two balls of yarn from a vast array available in the wool shop to the front of the craft room and then you are ready to begin. At every stage of the process Anne tells you what to do, using both sample work and real time demonstrations. Anne then keeps a watchful eye on what you are doing and speaks to you, either to offer praise or to explain and correct mistakes. By the end of the day you have created a scarf which is very satisfying. Anne is an outstanding teacher - a clear communicator, an accomplished and knowledgeable craftsperson with a gentle manner and an eye for detail. She quickly builds a rapport with the group and you feel at ease throughout the day. I would recommend this experience without reservation."

Claire Allam reviewed: Weave a scarf in a day - handloom weaving

"I really enjoyed this day-long course. Anne took us through the technical aspects clearly, and at a good pace. She gave lots of advice as to choice of yarn and everybody left with a lovely scarf. All the work was as different as the makers, and, as Anne had told us, the yarn was transformed by the warp/weft interaction. The venue (The Craft House, Bingley) was great too - lots of light space to work in, with great food and drinks on hand from the cafe downstairs. Highly reccommended."

Claire G reviewed: Weave a Scarf in a Day - Harrogate

"I had a lovely day, creating a woven scarf. It was a small mixed ability group (some with weaving experience and some complete beginners). Everyone worked together and were really supportive. Anne was lovely and guided us through the process in small steps that was easy to understand. Six beautiful scarves were created and Anne gave us guidance on finishing (and a sheet to take home) and washing."

Kathy McNeil reviewed: Weave a Scarf in a Day - Harrogate

"Thank you for a super day Anne. My scarf is all washed and dry, I'm so pleased with it. It was really interesting listening to how you set up the loom and I found your instructions throughout the day, very clear, everything made sense and the day progressed at a really good pace."
