A simple fabric can become something deeply personal through quiet, intentional stitching.

In this class, we’ll explore how to add sashiko-inspired embroidery to knit, crochet, or woven fabric using simple, repeatable stitches to create subtle texture and visual interest.

Students will learn how to prepare fabric for stitching, work on a grid (with or without marked fabric), and choose thread, contrast, and placement for a modern, cohesive look. We’ll work through a small stitched sample in class, focusing on rhythm, spacing, and building confidence with the technique.

This class is ideal for makers who are comfortable with the basics and are ready to explore ways to personalize and elevate their finished pieces.
