SUSTAINABLE CITY

Workshop, Hall 4, Both 4.E80

In 1.5 hours we will crochet a small, chic shawl with a ring as a fastening. You can also use the same technique to crochet a large triangular shawl yourself later. Crochet yarn and crochet hook will be provided and you are of course welcome to take them with you.

The workshop leader will be Gabriela Kaiser, who worked as a knitwear designer for several years before setting up her own trend agency. For a few years now, she has been doing more handicrafts in her private life and also provides instructions on YouTube.



Together we will crochet a small net bag in 1.5 hours, which you can use to give away things such as a jam jar or to put a screw-top jar in as a hanging flower vase or tea light holder. You can use the same principle to crochet a larger version of this net bag later on to use it as a shopping net. You should have basic crochet skills for this workshop. Crochet yarn and crochet hook will be provided and you are welcome to take them with you.

Immerse yourself in the magic of plant colors!

In this workshop, we transfer the colors from real flowers and leaves directly onto 100% hemp paper in a fascinating process. This results in special patterns and individual creations. You don't need any previous knowledge and can playfully experiment with the natural materials with us. You can create your own flower prints

on unique greeting cards. You can also take your own “sevengardens Hammered Leaves Set” home with you: Hammers, wooden board and 3 HEMPA hemp paper folded cards with colorful envelopes.

Your workshop leader Jessica Färberkind is a visual artist. She works with self-made plant dyes, digital media and poetry. She combines old traditions with sustainable techniques - out of love for our planet and its future.

Her studio and workshop space is located at the Emschermündung farm in Dinslaken. The dye garden there is the source of the colors for her paintings and color experiments.
