Granton Goes Greener are very excited to be part of @EdClimateFest on 14th August at Leith Links …

We are very excited to have our stall with FREE clothes, shoes and some books at the festival.

Plus we are preparing a basic weaving workshop, where we will be teaching how to do weaving with upcycled materials like T-shirt yarn or plastic fruit nets.

And we will have some weaving kits to give away, so you could take them home and practise!
