Yubinuki translates literally to “thimble” in Japanese. A soft and durable cloth thimble ring constructed of a paper or cardboard core wrapped in padding and stitched with colorful threads to create geometric designs. The stitching is similar in look to a temari ball obi, but creation and setup are not quite so labor-intensive. Join local crafter Beth Battey for this unique workshop.
This event is part of Japan Week in partnership with the University of Michigan Center for Japanese Studies.
For teens & Adults. Held in First Floor Lobby. The event is repeated at 5:30p
