Braid-in and Coiled Rag Rugs

---

In this beginners’ craft workshop, you will learn two modern and versatile techniques of rag rug making, which will allow you to turn old clothing and textile offcuts into rugs, bowls, baskets and much more. Led by rag rug author and expert, Elspeth Jackson, students will try out the braid-in rug making technique whilst making an upcycled placemat, before moving onto the coiled cord technique, making a 3D pot. All materials will be provided on the day and attendees will leave armed with the knowledge to be able to make rag rug projects for themselves at home. Both these techniques are super easy and addictive – you’ll soon be hooked!
