The Arran Heritage Museum at Rosaburn, Brodick, holds its second special event day of the season on Sunday.
At their annual Craft Day visitors can see all kinds of local traditional skills and crafts in action. Experts will demonstrate fleeces, wool dyeing, spinning and weaving, quilting, embroidery, baking, butter making, painting, and many other skills throughout the afternoon, from 1.30pm onwards.
The Isle of Arran Pipe Band will be performing; and other traditional music-making will also be evident throughout the afternoon. Additionally a local group of Gaelic singers will sing the songs used in days gone by to ‘waulk’ newly made cloth to make it thicker after washing, soaking, beating, and shrinking by rhythmically moving the cloth in time to the music.
