Masterclass for individuals
Masterclass at The Knitwit Stable
A new sweater is often bought quickly. But what world is hidden behind your woolen sweater? On our farm with knitting studio, we will introduce you to the making process of your woolen sweater during the Masterclass 'The world behind a sweater'. This gives you insight into the wool chain, the craft and all facets involved in producing a sweater.
You will meet our merino sheep, Texel sheep and angora goats. You will learn about animal welfare, shearing the coats, the different qualities of wool and the properties and applications of wool. We also show how yarn is made and demonstrate how to make a sweater. We will also show our documentary “From goat to garment”.
After this masterclass you will know all the ins and outs about the fashion industry, the wool industry and how a sweater is made. And especially what you can pay attention to when purchasing a sweater.
In addition to the above, you will also get to work yourself in the afternoon. You will receive explanations and instructions on how to knit a hat on a Brother hand knitting machine. This part takes up to four hours. You will go home with a self-knitted hat made from Dutch yarn.
If you want to participate in the Masterclass, add the Masterclass to your shopping cart, a maximum of 10 people can participate. After you have ordered and paid for the Masterclass, your registration is final.
