Unwind Weave and Find Tranquility at the Mindful Weaving Workshop!
Craft your own peace in a small, supportive setting.

Join me for a unique and enriching experience at the Mindful Weaving Workshop. In this intimate 2 hours workshop, you'll learn the basics of weaving while creating your own beautiful piece of textile, immersing yourself in a meditative and historical exploration of this age-old craft.

Here's what awaits you:
• Weave your way to tranquillity: Learn fundamental weaving techniques on a tapestry loom and discover the joy of creating a unique handwoven textile coaster.
• Experience the unique character of Sardinian wool: Work with genuine Sardinian wool known for its distinctive texture. This robust fibre adds a touch of rustic charm and historical
authenticity to your woven creation.
• A journey through time: Explore the fascinating history of weaving a craft practised for centuries across the globe.
• Find peace in the process: Weaving is a meditative practice that fosters focus and inner calm, and I will guide you with calming breathing and meditative invitations.

This workshop is perfect for you if:
• You're a complete beginner interested in learning a new relaxing skill.
• You're looking for a creative outlet to unwind and de-stress.
