Welcome to macramé workshop!

It could be making different knots and knots, mounted on plates in frames, bottle ship construction and fine works in ropes - such as macramé!

Seafarers brought the technique from Arab craftsmen to Europe over 700 years ago. On sailing ships, macramé was used for reinforcements on ropes. Today, macramé is a hobby that you can use to make things that are for decoration.

Here the children can do as the sailors did, and make cool things in natural materials!

Welcome to young and old!
