• Vatisker - HARRIS TWEED… LET’S GET WEAVING!!

SENSE the sights, sounds, smell and feel of Harris Tweed® with my weaving demonstration at the first stop of our tour in the village of Vatisker.

During the demonstration, the adventurous amongst you will even get an opportunity to pedal the loom. Who knows where your bit of finished Harris Tweed® will end up!!

I’m sure several questions will be raised on the day and I’ll answer those as we go along so this makes for a highly interactive experience.

YOUR FREE SOUVENIR … It’s good to capture the moment so I can take your photo sitting at the loom, which is then inserted in a personalised, free souvenir for you to take home.

• Harris Tweed Photo Souvenir - your photo at the loom presented in case with tweed sample
• Snacks
• Bottled water
• Museum entrance fee - £5 donation to the Museum on your behalf

SENSE the sights, sounds, smell and feel of the iconic Harris Tweed®. The first stop on the tour is my loom shed in the village of Vatisker. I demonstrate the process of transforming simple woollen threads to the final woven Harris Tweed®.

EXPLORE my favourite beach on the island, Garry Beach. A glorious expanse of sand comes into view, impressively framed by the soft peaty hills and finished by majestic sea stacs like giants teeth.

CONNECT with Hebridean life, history and culture. Our final stop is Museum nan Eilean at Lews Castle in Stornoway where we connect with the rich heritage and culture of the Outer Hebrides.
