Yarn wrapping is a simple yet beautiful technique that transforms everyday materials into textured, colourful objects. By winding yarn or thread around a base — such as a stick, frame, or card — you can create decorative pieces, explore colour combinations, or even design calming, tactile objects.
This workshop invites you to slow down, think about colour and form, and find joy in the rhythmic, tactile act of wrapping thread. No special skills or equipment are necessary.
