Yarn

Yarn crafts are omnipresent in cultural histories across the globe.

As well as being a show of crafts-personship and technical skill, yarn crafts are central to community-building and social wellbeing.

D O R T A yarn workshops are an introduction into the magic of yarn-based activities and their community-nurturing possibilities.

Gentle, accessible and encouraging, these workshops are about centring play and nostalgia through a material than runs deep through our heritages across the world.
