"Thank you Alice for a really enjoyable day. It was so relaxing spending a whole day weaving. I am very pleased with the piece of weaving that I brought home with me. I am looking forward to doing more weaving."

Tracy Macaulay reviewed: Macrame Pot Hanger Workshop

"What a fabulous way to spend two hours learning the basics of a new craft. Alice is a very welcoming, calm and patient teacher and I thoroughly enjoyed making my pot holder under her guidance and chatting to the other attendees. The workshop is run in a sideroom off the Porters Lodge gift shop and is a perfect location."

Amanda reviewed: Introduction to Frame Loom Weaving

"Loved this! Alice is a great teacher, explaining as you go and suggesting different techniques to try which is exactly what I wanted as an introduction. Huge range of wools to choose from. Definitely thinking of going back for a second day."
