Eelgrass Sessions: Make Christmas and new years ornaments with Eelgrass
Join the eelgrass craft workshop at Kai with Feral Design and explore some basic knotting and ornament patterns. We will be using eelgrass, collected from the Øresund, as the material for this craft workshop and explore together the handworking potential of the local marine plant. In this workshop, participants can expect to have a simple completed ornament to take home for the holidays.
Designs for the eelgrass ornaments are inspired by both Japanese Shimenawa and Nordic craft. As part of the crafting activity, we will learn about how eelgrass is not just an important local marine plant, but from the Pacific, to the Americas, and nearly every continent on the planet, eelgrass and other seagrasses are vital to the life of the sea. We will also learn a bit about the role of eelgrass in different cultures around the world.
