Wool, Yarns, Crafts

Around 36 exhibitors present their range and offer advice on materials, knitting, and crochet techniques. This makes the festival both a shopping event and a source of inspiration.

The Café am Stadtsee at Kurze Heide 19 provides an idyllic setting for the Wollefest. Its location directly on the lake and the café's ambiance make the festival a relaxing weekend getaway. Visitors can pause by the water between market strolls and refresh themselves at the café.

Program: Sales, Workshops, Encounters
