    Discover the Structure & Rhythm of Handwoven Cloth

    A two-day table loom weaving workshop for beginners, 10 a.m.–4 p.m. each day, in the beautiful surroundings of Fisherton Mill in Salisbury, Wiltshire.

    Table looms are used to create fine handwoven cloth — from scarves and tea towels to lengths of fabric for fashion and interiors. Because setting up and weaving on a table loom is more complex than frame weaving, this workshop takes place over two full days, allowing plenty of time to learn, experiment, and weave at your own pace.

    What’s Included

    • Two full days of guided tuition with Ellie Fisher, a weaver with over 20 years’ experience

    • Use of looms, tools and all materials, including natural yarns and fibres (organic cotton, bamboo, flax and hemp)

    • Comprehensive printed handouts to support your learning and take home

    • A 20% discount on the Fisherton Mill Gallery Café lunch menu each day

    Spaces are limited to a maximum of four participants to ensure you receive plenty of one-to-one guidance. Suitable for complete beginners or those wanting a refresher in structured weaving techniques.

    What to Expect

    This is an in-depth, hands-on workshop covering both the technical and creative aspects of weaving. It’s detailed, practical, and hugely rewarding — everything you learn is supported by clear notes you can take home.

    Day One: Planning & Setting Up

    • The basic principles and terminology of weaving

    • How to plan and make a warp

    • Winding your warp onto the loom and threading it up

    Day Two: Pattern & Weaving

    • Understanding and documenting pattern structures

    • Weaving your samples and experimenting with design

    By the end of the two days, you’ll take home a series of woven samples.

    You’ll be encouraged to work at your own pace while supporting others in the group. Everyone learns differently — the focus is on learning deeply and enjoying the process.

    What to Bring

    Fisherton Mill has a wonderful café serving lunches, cakes and drinks, or you’re welcome to bring your own packed lunch.
    All materials are provided, and you’ll receive a 20% discount on food from the café during the workshop.

    Parking & Arrival

    Please arrive in good time to park before the workshop begins.
    Fisherton Mill doesn’t have on-site parking, but you’ll find full details here:

    The workshop takes place in the gallery upstairs. We start promptly at 10 a.m., but if you’re running late, don’t worry — once everyone’s started, Ellie will help you get up to speed.
