How do I clean my scarf?
If your scarf needs freshening up. I suggest pegging it outside on a windy day and letting the fresh air blow through your scarf. If you need to give it a light wash, I recommend doing this in a sink and using lukewarm water and then laying the scarf flat on top of a towel to dry. If you need to iron your scarf, I advise doing this under a tea towel.
Can I have my own private workshop?
Yes, I deliver private workshops for both individuals and small groups.
