Dave B. reviewed: Design and Weave a beautiful alpaca scarf at Burnt Fen Alpacas

"Just finished the two day design and weave a scarf. What a fantastic experience! Annie is great and very experienced, the alpaca's are amazing especially Mr. Tumnus who is a real character. The location is so relaxing and comfortable, the light lunch is really good and the whole atmosphere is truly wonderful. We were blessed with beautiful sunny days so were able to work outside and spent some time in the fantastic yurt. Can fully recommend this course,"

"I had a wonderful day in a beautiful setting in the yurt with alpacas in the field. Annie is a very kind and helpfull teacher. I would definitely be interested in a weaving or dying course with Annie. "

"This course was incredible! Annie is the perfect instructor. We could go at our own pace, stopping for tea, biscuits and a bit of alpaca feeding before going back to our looms. I came away with a new-found love of textiles, alpaca wool and a beautiful hand-woven scarf, and I'll be going back to learn how to spin next year"

Claire reviewed: Design and Weave a beautiful alpaca scarf at Burnt Fen Alpacas

"I've just had a thoroughly relaxing two days with Annie and her alpacas. It was a real joy to understand the process of weaving a scarf and listening to Annie about the alpacas, how their fleece is treated to turn it into yearn and dyed using plants from Annie's garden. The yurt was warm and cosy and the company great. I would highly recommend this course. :-) "
