Weavers Interest Group Project

Weaving Interest Group Members are invited to make a small woven piece of a chosen weave structure. This is also open to all guild members who may be interested in contributing, as not all have chosen to join in the weaving interest group.

The pieces will be used as a loan collection for Highland Guild events and displays, but eventually returned to each maker. This is an ongoing project over time to ensure a changing collection of pieces for displays, which highlight different types of weaving. For more information follow the link below.

WIG Weaving Challenge

Can we help?

If you have any queries about weaving, spinning or dyeing, one of our members may be able to help, so please contact us and someone will get back to you.

For Sale

We often have new members, learning to spin, weave or dye, who are looking for equipment, so we are happy to pass on information from individuals who have equipment or materials to sell. If you have something to sell, please use the contact email: hgwsdwebmaster(at)gmail.com (replacing the “at” with @), and please give some means for members to contact you direct. If you give an email address it will appear on the site in the format: someone(at)emailprovider to stop robots picking it up. Items will be advertised for 2 months – less if you let us know they are sold.

“Friends enjoying a spinning session.”
Whilst these informal get-togethers aren’t organised by the Guild, many do meet up for a spinning day and we can put you in touch with people in your area. See the events page for information on local spinning groups.
