Macramé workshops
Vitra Campus
Macramé is a creative knotting technique originating in the Middle East and Asia. It uses knots to produce decorative and functional objects. Be it in the form of wall hangings, plant hangers or jewellery – macramé brings charm and character to every space. It is a relaxing and diverse craft, which is fun and inspires creativity.
