Tartan Weaving Mill, Edinburgh

This weekend I went on a little adventure up to Edinburgh, Scotland to celebrate my friend's 21st birthday.  Although it included a lot of alcohol and dancing we managed to fit in a few touristy things.  When we visited the castle we found the Tartan Weaving Mill along the Royal Mile. Nostalgia hit me, and it took me right back to my student years spending my days in and out of the weave and print studio. Although in the end I specialised in print, I did complete a few modules in woven textiles. It felt so familiar being around looms, cone winders and dye VATs again. I'd recommend a visit here if any of you ever go to Edinburgh, especially as the gift shop sells some amazing woven goodies!
