Ria

This is what she told us:
" You can do a lot here, like embroidery. or weaving, or knitting, or sewing.
We make placemats, pillows, scarves or disguise clothes.
You can rent these clothes.
There are clothes for children and for adults.
They cost about € 5,- a piece to rent."


Clothes made by the clients of Triambacht

"To make a suit it will take about 5 weeks to finish it.
We also make bibs.
They are so big because they are made for adults.
We also make little bags which are sold at Trikado."


Dieuwke
Dieuwke also works at Triambacht at the textile department..
She cannot talk, but she showed us how to use the weaving machine.

First you put the thread through the needle.

Dieuwke is showing us the needle she uses.

Then you push the needle between the threads of the weaving machine.

Dieuwke is weaving a scarf.

And you do this over and over again until the scarf you were making is finished.

Dieuwke is pulling the threads.
