Discover the timeless craft of tartan weaving at our exclusive Traditional Tartan Coasters Workshop. Perfect for beginners, this hands-on workshop offers a unique opportunity to delve into the rich Scottish heritage, making it an ideal experience for those with Scottish ancestry or anyone interested in textile arts. In this engaging two-hour session, participants will master the basics of weaving on a 4-shaft table loom. You will create a set of 4 to 6 exquisite coasters, weaving with fine Shetland wool in the tartan pattern of your choice. Select from a vast range of unrestricted registered tartans from the official Scottish Tartan Register, allowing you to connect with your Scottish roots in a personal and creative way. Prior to the workshop, our skilled instructors will prepare your loom with the exact thread count and colour-matched wool from our extensive "wall of wool," ensuring everything is set up and ready for you to start weaving immediately.
