Loved this class! The instructor was super communicative and made sure we knew what to bring and what to expect when we arrived. The class was small and intimate and the instructor was able to give each one of us individual attention. I loved the pieces I created and felt really inspired from working with my hands all day :)

Wonderful class. Nicely sized (we had 6 students in total). Paced well for beginners - there was sufficient time for pre-learning, and then trying out different techniques on 3 pieces (the studio provided tea white cotton towels / bandanas / totes). A lovely way to spend a Sun morning.

This class is so much fun, and is an awesome intro into Shibori. Karin is a really great teacher, and it's so cool to walk out with three things that you've dyed yourself. Highly recommend it.
