WORLD WEAVING celebrates its fourth year! In the WELTSTUDIO and in the lounge at BERLIN GLOBAL, everyone is once again invited to try out a wide variety of crafts. Weaving on small and large looms, knitting, embroidery, spinning wool and even tufting – there are no limits to your imagination. Our facilitators will help you bring your own ideas to life, and both beginners and experienced makers will find plenty to enjoy.

Programme

WELTSTUDIO (11 am – 5 pm)
Tufting with artist Luisa Walther
Dive into the world of tufting! Using a tufting gun, anyone who feels like it can work colourful wool threads into a fabric. Step by step, a vibrant, textured textile artwork emerges. Artist Luisa Walther demonstrates this exciting technique and invites you to bring your own ideas to life.

Collective Embroidery
The Berlin association “Kollektiv Sticken” invites you to take part in creating an embroidery piece. Inspired by current themes and stories, a constantly growing collective artwork takes shape on a large piece of fabric.

World Weaving
In the WELTSTUDIO, you’ll find a huge loom – the “Thread Cartograph” – where visitors can weave a carpet together. Discover weaving on small and large frames and create your own small woven pieces to take home.

Spinning Wool
How is wool actually made? Using hand spindles, we spin wool – with live speakers to guide you. You’ll learn fascinating facts about the history of textiles and how wool can be dyed naturally.

Lounge (1 pm – 4 pm)
In the lounge next to the WELTSTUDIO, young and old can sink into cosy cushions and, from 1 to 4 pm, enjoy short stories and the sounds of the handpan – all while knitting and weaving together.
