A selection of natural white and grey linen yarns (minimum order varies from about 260g – 4k depending on cone size) for hand-weavers is available by post direct from Anna Champeney Estudio Textil in north Spain. The linen in stock at any one time depends on what the studio is weaving, but can include 100 nm, 12/2 nm, 12/1 nm, 13/2 nm, 26/2 nm and 39/2 nm. Sample cards available for a small charge. [more...] Anna Champeney and Lluis Grau´s enchanting, small hand-woven textile and basketry workshops in the tiny hamlet of Cristosende may have the most tranquil location but they are amazingly active, with a full programme of craft courses and activities with guided visits in august. Both craftspeople also manage to participate in international exhibitions, make work to commission, and develop new work at the same time and run a holiday cottage next door – Casa dos Artesans. For an unusual experience and terrific scenery (and wine) you can arrange an autumn break here, combining self-catering accommodation with a craft activity – far more interesting and enjoyable than just watching it happen!
