This document is a record of the techniques used by Donald Macarthur of Shawbost, Isle of Lewis as taught to students at his creel making classes at Uig.

Uig and Bernera Learning Association with aid from the Gaelic Education Fund commissioned me to record Donald's teachings.

The document has photographs illustrating various stages of the process and details the procedure, so takes a few minutes to download on a dialup internet connection.
