A course by Ania Grzeszek

She tried dyeing her yarns and textiles herself and then began documenting her learning process on Instagram.

Ania offers ecologically dyed products, supplied by international yarn and textile stores, she buys her dyeing and weaving materials and teaches courses in her Berlin workshop. The artist focuses on making and manually coloring textiles for different products that she sells around the world. Ania loves to experiment and has fun exploring the endless possibilities offered by materials, dyes, designs, and techniques to create each piece.
