Amaminosato - Hands-on experience of weaving Oshima Tsumugi textiles
Try your hand at weaving an original Oshima Tsumugi textile
You can create original works using a hand loom to weave Oshima Tsumugi, the traditional kimono textile.
You can bring your completed Oshima Tsumugi textile back with you on the same day, and use it as a table centerpiece or vase mat.
Different weaving experiences are available, including the regular "hand weaving" and "hand weaving for beginners" which children can also partake in. There are also different types of weaving looms.
