Participants will learn the basics behind hand-stitching, as well as the stitches and patterns of Sashiko stitching.

Participants will learn the meditative and mindful properties of hand-stitching, and learn to read Sashiko patterns.
Students are provided with naturally dyed fabric for stitching on, along with Sashiko thread and other naturally dyed thread for stitching with, and students will leave with at least 4 stitched swatches.
