Jane reviewed: 3 hour introduction to frame loom weaving, Lemon & Jinja, Romsey

"Inspiring, friendly instructor with lots of ideas to try. You might want a longer time as three hours flies by! I would recommend this course to beginners, and Lemon and Jinja was a good venue. We had a very enjoyable evening. "

Jennifer reviewed: 3 hour introduction to frame loom weaving, Lemon & Jinja, Romsey

"Thoroughly enjoyed the 3 hour introductory weaving class. Great instruction and help whenever I got stuck! Wonderful choice of colours and different types of yarns to use. I was able to complete my piece to take home and am very happy with it. Many thanks!"

Elka responded:

" Thank you so much for the lovely review Jennifer. Thank you for coming, it was a pleasure to meet you and your weaving was fantastic! Best wishes, Ellie :)"

Charlotte Farmer reviewed: 6 Hour Introduction to Natural Dyeing, Mere, Wiltshire

"I really enjoyed this course and would recommend it to anyone. It was so exciting seeing how the things we had dyed turned out, it felt like unwrapping Christmas presents. We dyed different materials to show how differently they took the dyes, then dipped them in modifying solutions to see how other colours could be produced like that. A marvellous beginner's course."

Elka responded:

" Thank you for coming Charlotte, and for the lovely review! It was a pleasure to meet you and i'm delighted that you enjoyed the day. Best wishes, Claudia"
