"Tusind tak for en virkelig god workshop! Har ikke turde at gå i gang med strik med restegarn, farver og forskellige teksturer før. Har kun holdt mig til “opskriften” og garnanbefalinger. Men NU tør jeg at freestyle! Det gik jo så godt i dag 💪 Tak for at inspirere og gøre en ellers uoverkommelig designproces legende let og virkelig interessant 🧶🙌"

A creative workshop combining meditation, manifestation and textile crafts.
Duration: 4 hours
Participants: Up to 30
Materials: Included. Please bring your own knitting needles.
We begin with a guided meditation and visualisation, exploring what we would like to make more room for in our future. We then turn that intention into a textile piece and plant a symbolic seed for what we want to grow.
The wall-hanging pattern is sent out before the workshop. Participants are encouraged to knit the base in advance, leaving plenty of time for the creative work on the day.

Create a personal knitted wall hanging inspired by your hopes for the future. Throughout the course, we work with a symbolic seed for something we would like to make more room for.
Duration: 3–5 sessions of 2 hours
Participants: Up to 20
Materials: Included. Please bring your own knitting needles.
Each session has its own theme, combining meditation, visualisation, writing exercises and creative work with knitting and other textile techniques. We mainly use leftover yarn, fabric scraps and other surplus materials.

Learn how to achieve the right gauge with different yarns, tie quick, invisible and secure knots, and combine colours and fibres in new ways. We focus on creativity, experimentation and the confidence to question familiar knitting rules.
