Great place to learn crafts and buy yarn and crafty things. Wheelchair accessible but you have to give the lovely shop owner a shout to unlock the double door. Super helpful staff.

I recently took a weaving class with Brooke - cannot think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Brooke's a great instructor, very calm, relaxed and knowledgeable. I would happily spend many more Sundays depleting her instagram-worthy yarn wall! Also weaving is easier than it looks and very therapeutic and absorbing. Do it!

Everyone should try floor loom weaving as it's absolutely brilliant and not too tricky. I've been to these sessions a number of times now and I love them. It's a really mindful activity and at the end of 2 hours you come away with an original creation which I guarantee everyone will want to take off your hands. Brooke is a great tutor, there to answer questions and help you when needed. The space is warm and colourful and the atmosphere feels really creative. Highly recommended!!

I love this place. The shop is well stocked, welcoming and colourful and Brooke is such a warm and fun person to meet.I took a intro to sewing class last week and had the best time, I left with a new passion and just can’t wait to get sewing on my own now. It was really fun, we all got to go at our own pace and I really learnt a lot. Thank you.

Had a fantastic time at Make Town for Knitters Anonymous!! I’ve been looking for a new knitting group ever since I graduated and had to leave my university knitting society 5 years ago, and this one was amazing. Really cool to have a complete mix of abilities in the room, and it’s reassuring to know I could come back with any knitting quandary and have help! Will be going back soon.

I absolutely LOVED my freestyle loom weaving session at Make Town. A perfect combination of being helped to learn and being left to experiment! It was my first try and in just one session I came home with a beautiful tapestry that I felt so proud of! It was great fun, and is a beautiful and relaxed space to be creative in...I'd recommend it to anyone.

Had a whale of a time!! We loved every minute of our weaving workshop at Make Town. Brooke was super friendly, approachable and made the whole experience easy and lots of fun. We learnt to weave on the floor looms, and were surprised by how big our finished pieces were at the end of the 2 hours. Such a relaxing craft, very meditative, and so satisfying to come away with a new skill and a beautiful weaving. Two of us have now turned ours into cushions, and they are pride of place on our sofas. We will one thousand percent be back for more!!

I visited Make Town for a loom weaving workshop and had a great time, the staff is lovely and the shop is full of colours, tools and books for sewing and knitting.I booked the 3 hours slot so I had time to learn how the loom works thanks to the amazing Becky and get a coffee table runner completed.This is great for beginners to learn weaving basics but very satisfying as I managed to experiment with colours and have a little project completed, I highly recommend it!

Such an awesome space. I did a learn to sew workshop there with Brooke and she's the best. Such a fountain of knowledge and damn cool too. Anyone who wants to learn any craft skills should definitely go there. 10/10 at least
