Groups

Braids Group

While they may be few in number, the Braids Group are full of knowledge that they are keen to pass on (before it is too late.) They are prepared to act as a Brains Trust to guide any newcomer into the fibre fold. They can help with spinning, weaving, braiding, dyeing, etc.
For further information contact Diana Macauliffe at the Guild.

Weaving Project Group (day)

The Experimental Weavers Group has changed its name to Weaving Project Group (day) and it's meeting time to Tuesday.
