It was almost my first weaving experience, but it was very interesting. The introduction was easy to understand and I had no particular difficulties. The threads used for minsa-ori, dyes, Ishigaki Island's unique patterns and their backgrounds, etc. are very interesting as a cultural experience. The time required is about 10 to 20 minutes for weaving a small table center. There is a small museum and store inside the facility, and it took about 1 hour to visit all of them. If you go around slowly and in detail, it might take about 1.5 hours. You can choose from 6 types of cloth, 3 red and 3 blue.

530代Month of posting: 2024/03The teacher was very good at teaching and I was able to do it right away! I worked so hard that I lost track of time. There were six colors to choose from, and all of them were so beautiful that I couldn't decide which color to choose. It was my first weaving experience, so it was a great experience. Mincer weaving at the adjacent shop was also beautiful.
