Students learn about hat-making as an activity – hatters are not the only ones who make hats! Through explanation, sensory learning about materials, videos and trying on hats, students learn about the rich heritage of hat-making, which has shaped our cultural and economic space for centuries. Each student tests himself in the technique of wet felting himself – each makes a felt ball to get a sense of work, which he then upgrades by making his own felt soap, which he takes home.

Students learn about the rich textile heritage. They learn about different natural materials (flax, cotton, hemp, silk, nettle, bamboo, wool, animal hair …), their origin, methods of obtaining and processing them. They also get to know a rarely known technique of blue printing and an interesting indigo plant, which gives a wonderful blue dye, while learning interesting things about jeans and “jeans”. The practical part follows, in which everyone makes a stencil for printing canvas (from potatoes, corks, leaves, objects … the more skilled make a motif from linoleum) and chooses the product to be printed – a canvas bag or napkin. He takes the printed product with him.
