Crieff: Tartan Weaving Workshop with Take-Home Sample

Learn about the history of weaving and the processes that create a tartan. Work on a small twill loom to weave a finished sample of tartan to take home. Suitable for beginners and children from age 12
Begin your workshop with a brief history of weaving and the processes that create a tartan. Then, work on a small twill loom to weave a finished sample of tartan to take home.

Choose your preferred colours of yarn to work with and create your own design or replicate your own family or clan tartan (note this will not be exact as we are working on small hand looms with limited yarns).

Receive expert guidance from our weaving tutor who has years of experience, and have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the workshop.

If you fall in love with weaving we have kits and wool for you to take away to carry on your experience at home. Please note there is an additional charge for the kits.

Delivered upstairs in a private room, the weaving loft sits above the ScotlandShop tartan shop full of beautiful fabrics and clothing, where you can also explore sample books and the clan map.

Groups are limited to 8 so you have a mini loom each and plenty of individual attention.

Workshop duration: 2 hours
