About this event

Try your hand at weaving with colourful yarn this February half term at Kresen Kernow!

Inspired by the women who wove silk at Heathcoat’s factory in Redruth, come and have a go at weaving! Choose from amazing multicoloured wool and make a woven artwork on a homemade loom.

Inspired by our current exhibition ‘Who, What, Wear: stories of the women behind Redruth’s rag trade’, this session is free, for all ages and drop-in – there’s no need to book.

The weaving uses blunt plastic needles and is aimed at ages 5+, but we will have some fun thick threads for smaller children to cut up and make bracelets with!
