Ashley reviewed: Beginners Spinning

"Absolutely wonderful day! It was definitely challenging, but super worth it to take home a little ball of self made wool. Even though I spent most of the day thinking I wasn't doing very well, it all came together at the end, and I can't wait to use the wool I made. Cathy was also lovely. She was helpful and very patient with everyone. At the end, my mum and I walked out, already talking about coming again sometime"

Lazykate Textiles responded:

"Ashley thank you so much- this made me so happy!! I had a great day and you and your mum did so well, I’m so pleased you’re going to carry on spinning. And you should because you were brilliant!"

Jenny P reviewed: Beginners Spinning

"What a fabulous day learning to spin on this beginner’s spinning course! Cathy was so knowledgeable and kind. A great teacher and very supportive and enthusiastic. I came away having learnt more than I’d expected and having spun my very own skein from a batch of texel fleece. I’ve hired a wheel from her now so I can continue to practise. "

Esther Hastings reviewed: Learn to Weave Two Day Course

"Cathy Wright is a very knowledgeable and talented person. Can't wait until my next course with her. No question was a stupid question and she encouraged me to explore colours and different stitches to transform the threads. Well worth the time and effort to be taught by Cathy."

Lazykate Textiles responded:

"Gosh this made me blush. Thanks Esther for this wonderful review. You were great fun on the workshop and your creative mind was a delight to watch, so inspiring. Really looking forward to seeing you soon "
