SAORI Toyosaki Nagaya

"SAORI Toyosaki Nagaya" is a workshop where you can experience hand weaving using Saori weaving, located in Nakazakicho, a retro town where wooden row houses and old folk houses remain. Saori weaving is a hand weaving technique that anyone can enjoy freely. By choosing and weaving many threads, you can create an original fabric that is one of a kind.
