Creative workshops at Cwmoernant Farm, Carmarthen
creative workshops where the emphasis is on learning new skills in a relaxed, friendly setting.
We look forward to sharing a warm farmhouse welcome, great food and inspiring surroundings
with new friends whilst we help you explore your creative abilities.
Fibre & Feast: The emphasis of this class is to allow you to explore the
techniques of spinning and natural dyeing and go home with enough yarn to
complete a small project of your choice. Ideal for knitting, weaving or crochet,
you can expect to make enough yarn for a hat and scarf set for example, and
you take away skills to enable to create your own custom yarns. Come for a day
or come for the weekend, the price includes a hearty farmhouse lunch, and if
you choose to do two days and stay overnight, a good dinner as well.
Dates: 4 and/or 5 March 2008
21 and/or 22 June 2008
Costs: £50 for one day, £80 for both (basic camping is free is you stay
overnight, other accomodation options are available with additional charges)
Baking in a Wood-fired Oven: Learn to create a range of traditional, delicious breads
and pastries and bake them in our outdoors wood-fired oven. A light lunch will be
provided but the nature of the workshop lends itself to an early supper where we can
sample the day's bake before you take your share of the produce home with you.
Dates to be confirmed, let us know if you are interested:
dyed wool fibres to create your very own unique and highly wearable handmade felt
pointy hat, perhaps with secret inside pockets or embellishments that reflect your
personality. A cheerful, intensive one day class with a sustaining seasonal lunch included
in the price.
Dates: 4 and 5 October 2008
Cost: £50
