About this event

We are thrilled to be part of Doors Open Days 2025!

Johnstone has a rich weaving history, once home to many thriving textile factories. To celebrate this heritage, we will be facilitating yarn spinning and weaving workshops.

Begin-to-Spin will be led by the wonderful Odet Beauvoisin!

Join us for a hands-on introduction to the art of spinning your own yarn — from carding fibers and using hand spindles, all the way to spinning on a beautiful Ashford Wheel, generously donated to our space.

Let’s get creative, build new skills, and reconnect with our rich textile heritage!

When: Saturday 6th September,12-2pm

Where: Johnstone Textile Space, 36 Houstoun Court, Johnstone, PA5 8DL
