See live demonstrations of the wide variety of century old techniques used to create functional or decorative items from wool and fibre.
Come along to the Christchurch Guild of Weavers and Spinners room and see demonstrations of preparing fleece, spinning, weaving, knitting, crochet, tapestry, embroidery, felting, dyeing and braiding.
These demonstrations will show how the items are made from sheep's fleece and yarns. The tools used are the same as were used centuries ago. A wide range of techniques will be demonstrated.
Also enjoy a display of handcrafted contemporary textile arts. The colours and design elements are contemporary but the processes are from our heritage.
