Welcome to the Weaving Space
My name is Cally Booker and I am a handweaver based in Dundee on the east coast of Scotland. As well as hosting classes in my fully-equipped studio in a refurbished jute mill, I travel to Guilds and groups around the UK to teach the art and craft of weaving. Through my Warp Space blog I offer resources to help novice and intermediate weavers develop creative confidence at the loom.
Over the fifteen years I have been weaving, I have exhibited my work nationally and internationally and become known for my colourful weaving style and my lively enthusiasm for the structure of woven cloth. I am a member of the Society of Designer Craftsmen and a Past President of Complex Weavers, an international organisation with a mission to educate and encourage innovation in handweaving.
