A beautiful weaving studio, where you can watch Jaine hand weaving with delicate silk in gorgeous hand dyed colours to create scarves, clothes, and a host of other absolutely unique items to wear and for the home. Jaine has been weaving for 30 plus years and is extremely knowledgeable about her craft. I took my partners 8 year old son, who was amazed to watch cloth being created on the loom, while Jaine explained the process to him. She is also a gifted seamstress, offering a bespoke service for those wishing to commission a particular item. She was working on a kimono style jacket while we were there in breathtaking shades of blue and purple silk. We also loved the Japanese woven cord jewelry- and learning about the history of that too. A gift from Syke Silks is always a one-off. I bought hand woven scarves for friends who absolutely loved them - even my brother in law, who is notoriously difficult to gift! I highly recommend this Studio as a fun and interesting experience with a warm and engaging host, and as a great place to buy gifts... or something really special for yourself!
