- Pl. Independencia 842 - The workshop takes place in the middle of Montevideo, centrally located at Plaza Independencia, on the mezzanine floor of the iconic Palacio Salvo. The showroom of our small textile studio is on the ground floor. From there, a staircase leads to the event room of the workshop.
In the workshop you will weave the fabric for a small aroma cushion on a small loom. The yarn used comes from Uruguayan merino sheep and is 100% wool.
The aroma pillow is filled with lavender and wool and sewn by me. The final size is approx. 14 cm x10 cm.
No previous knowledge is necessary. The instructors speak Spanish and English, as well as German and French, depending on the supervisor.
Uruguay is the fourth largest wool exporter in the world and has some of the softest merino wool. Immerse yourself in the world of the oldest handicraft and create your own merino wool gift.
Due to the excellent location of the workshop, you can then explore the Palacio Salvo, the Theater Solis, the Plaza Independencia and the old town.
