Workshop: Dyeing and textile techniques

Without thread there are no clothes.
According to this principle, participants learn elementary techniques of textile processing. They spin wool and flax with a hand spindle they made themselves, based on the early Celtic model. Dyeing the yarn over an open fire gives an insight into the richness of colors in nature, which the Celts also appreciated. During the weekend we dye red (madder), blue (indigo) and yellow (plant or mushroom).
