Floor loom weaving FAQ's
Is 2 hours long enough?
Yeah! but if you want to stay longer just book two slots back to back, but I always say sleep on it, and come back another time instead!
My kid will love this!
Amen! Kids can weave solo, beside you in the same class or bring the whole whanau!
I'm having trouble booking?
Oh dear! We have 6 floor looms at the moment, so somebody may have booked the time you want. Click around until you find something that works.
What do I make?
Uniquely handmade cloth! Most people are pretty stoked to hang it up in a room somewhere and remember the best day of their lives!
How much can I make?
How long is a piece of string? Everything will become crystal clear in about 10 minutes after starting to weave, so just relax into it and see what happens.

Jules TierneyCrafting with Brooke was brilliant. I was a complete beginner and felt totally safe and unjudged in her pro hands! Biggest thing she taught me is that any and all (crafting) mistakes can be mended or made into something more beautiful. Her patience, kindness and craic seeps into the work, I loved every minute!
B_SuperorganismWhen I approached Brooke to sew a stage outfit for me, I was confident she would deliver a perfect product by the looming deadline. She was great at following my brief while also advising me on what design and fabric would work best. The result exceeded expectations; I have had endless compliments on my silver sequinned cape!
Lewis of ArabiaBrooke is one of those magical people you meet for a second and feel you've known all your life. She's so insanely talented and shares it with such grace you also feel like you can accomplish such technical skills with her around. As a teacher she is knowledgeable, interesting and engaging and most importantly FUN!
Therese LaneHad a whale of a time!! We loved every minute of our weaving workshop at Make Town. Brooke was super friendly, approachable and made the whole experience easy and lots of fun.
Sara LEveryone should try floor loom weaving as it's absolutely brilliant and not too tricky. I've been to these sessions a number of times now and I love them.

Shop FAQs
I am running late?
Damn it! We start our classes bang on time – It’s just how we roll. If you are late – you may be turned away and will need to re-book for another time.
Kinda like rocking up to the theatre late and the show has started so you have to wait outside until half time, except there is no half time and we can’t catch you up, and you will just disrupt the whole session. Think about your fellow class mates x
Can I reschedule my booking?
Yes! Please email anouska@make.town to request a new date that works with our current calendar. This must be no later than 72 hours (3 days) before your class takes place. If you miss this window, tough titties.
Rescheduling is fine, we are fully capable, but it does suck lots of time, so please be clear and quick. Much appreciated.
I can't come and I only found out today!
Yeah sorry! We have already prepped and planned for your class by now, so you can send a mate in your place instead.
Sometimes we have a waiting list and are happy to offer your place. But no guarantees as this is not always the case.
I only used 1/2 of my booking can i use the rest later?
Not this time! We don’t refund or rebook any unused time.
Think about it like missing the opening act of a gig, you don’t get half ya ticket price refunded at the box office back cause you were late, or walked out half way through. You just gotta suck this one up.
