Woven Wonders
Woven Wonders is a relaxed, hands-on weaving space where festival-goers of all ages can discover the joy of textile making. Drop in for a few minutes or stay as long as you like, exploring a colourful collection of fabric scraps, wool, yarn and natural fibres. Experiment with a range of looms—from simple sticks and cardboard to vintage wooden frames—and create anything from a small woven sample to a striking textile artwork. Take your creation home as a keepsake, or contribute it to a growing community weaving that celebrates creativity, connection and the collective spirit of the AWESOME Festival.
