Class Description

Description

Students will learn Kumihimo technique, a card braiding technique traditionally from Japan that means 'gathered threads.' The Samurai once used kumihimo as laces for their armor. Kumihimo is made by interlacing reels of yarn such as cotton, silk, ribbon, cord or even scraps of torn fabric. 

We'll create lengths of decorative braids that can become unique bracelets or key chain decorations.

No prior experience is necessary.

Materials + Equipment

Participating students will be responsible for having these materials available to them.

  • Kumihimo Disk
  • Bobbins
  • Yarn
  • Scissors
