Ancient Craft Workshops
Lynne McKeggie has held very successful workshops focussing on textile crafts, set in their local context. Courses have been held in Dingwall, Alness, Nairn and Tain and have covered a range of techniques including cord making, weaving, spinning, tablet weaving, and naal binding.
The workshops also shared ideas for re-using household waste , showing people how to use everyday items to continue practicing and creating at home.
The courses were funded by High Life Highland.
