Join Julie and I, for a Day Course in Rug Making ...
This day is split into two so you will learn rag rug making (both clippy AND hooky methods) PLUS the second half of the day you will learn how to make a raw fleece peg loom rug.
Date of the Rug Making Course
Saturday 29th November 2025
Time.
10am - 5pm
Bring a bag of rags such as fleeces, hoodies, leggings, t shirts and felts, stretch velvets are good too. Then, after a design session and a practise of two methods; clippy and hooky you can begin your first work of art on hessian. A great way to use up childrens' old clothes to make a memory mat. You can also turn your work into a bag, wallhanging or cushion cover - it doesn't have to be a rug!
Tools, hessian, wool and peg looms are provided. Though feel free to bring anything you want to add!
Refreshments are included
Proper loo and free parking on site

Course takes place at Wild Harvest School of Self-Reliance, in the rural outskirts of York. YO424TA
