Magic of the nettle - The threads of slowness

Description

Just like in the fairy tale of Rumpelstiltskin, "nettle fibers turn to gold" with patience and a little skill. The nettle is harvested and processed from fiber to yarn. We will work and refine with our hands.

The diversity of this very special, ancient, magical plant is an incredible treasure for us humans. The stinging nettle is there to be touched, eaten, dyed and spun!

The nettle is harvested and processed from fiber to yarn. We will collect, spin, knot, cook, twist and work and refine with our hands. It is the dedication to a special slow craft experience and to discover the holistic diversity of the stinging nettle experimentally in one day.

For the main course, bring a vegetarian contribution for the shared lunch buffet and enjoy the day with all your senses.
