Wolle-Festival Husum

The Wolle-Festival is an annual consumer show dedicated to high-quality yarns, textile crafts and creative craftsmanship. Held at Messe Husum & Congress in Husum, the event is aimed at dedicated craft enthusiasts, professional designers, textile artists, small-scale producers and anyone with a passion for premium textiles and traditional crafts.

Organised by Lorenz GmbH, the Wolle-Festival provides a platform for high-quality materials, creative ideas and personal exchange within the textile crafts community. The focus is on fine natural fibres and premium yarns, including pure new wool, merino wool, alpaca, mohair, cashmere, cotton and silk, as well as sustainable and hand-dyed yarns. The range is complemented by knitting and crochet accessories, knitting needles and crochet hooks, stitch markers, yarn winders, swifts, scissors, buttons and a wide variety of other tools for discerning crafters.

The show also presents a broad spectrum of traditional and contemporary textile craft techniques. Visitors can explore knitting, crochet, felting, spinning, weaving and knotting, as well as discover unique handmade pieces, exclusive designer creations and individual textile products from small producers and craftspeople. Numerous exhibitors share their expertise, showcase innovative materials and introduce new techniques and the latest trends from the international textile crafts scene.

One of the highlights of the Wolle-Festival is its programme of live demonstrations and hands-on workshops, where visitors can try out different techniques and learn from experienced designers and specialist exhibitors. The opportunity for personal interaction, the creative atmosphere and access to first-hand inspiration and expertise make the event a popular meeting place for the German-speaking textile crafts community.

Exhibitors primarily represent yarn manufacturers, wool suppliers, textile designers, arts and crafts businesses, accessory manufacturers, small-scale producers and specialist craft businesses. Key visitor groups include knitting and crochet enthusiasts, felters, weavers, spinners, textile artists, designers, course instructors, specialist retailers and anyone looking for high-quality materials and creative inspiration for their own projects.
