Kumihimo is a Japanese form of braiding, translated as “gathering of threads.” The earliest form of kumihimo dates back to 794 BC, when braids were used to secure clothing in religious ceremonies, and later to join Samurai armor. Today, Kumihimo is used to make beautiful braided jewelry. In week one, we will explore the history of this ancient art, and make a simple bracelet. Your kit will include a reusable Kumihimo disk, satin cord (with some choices in color), and an attractive catch. In week two, we will create a more complex beaded bracelet. You will leave with the skills and basic materials to continue this satisfying craft. Additional clasps, satin cord, bead cord, and seed beads will be available for purchase at both classes. Tuition includes a $30 materials fee. Come get your Kumi going!
