Press release for the braiding workshop

Dear all,

I'm pleased to announce two workshops to be run by the Good Kharma Bunny (thats me!)

The Good Kharma Bunny is looking to spread a knowledge of various textile techniques through a selection of one day courses, suitable for all abilities.

Japanese Braiding ( Kumihimo)



Sat 28th October 2006 10.30 to 4pm

and Sat 25th November 10.30 to 4pm

A beautiful technique for producing braids that can be used as cords, bag handles, jewellery and many more. It uses a simple, inexpensive and reusable bit of equipment with a wide variety of yarns to quickly produce some exciting braids.
The course will give a basic understanding of the method and you will produce several samples to go away with.
The course will be held in Shepshed, Leicestershire

There will be courses on Ply split braiding and hand felting in the new year.

If you would like further information please e-mail me at goodkharmabunny@tiscali.co.uk

Below are a few examples of the equipment and results you can achieve
