Welcome to The Yarn Tree

 

Support Shibori in Oaxaca, Mexico, 2026

Workshop for Local Artisans, January 2026

I’m returning to Teotitlán del Valle, Oaxaca, Mexico, from January 6–9, 2026, to teach a 4-day Shibori (Japanese tie-dye) workshop at the Centro Cultural Comunitario Teotitlán del Valle (CCCdeTV) to 12 local artisans.

Participants will learn to make an Indigo/Ferrous Vat, explore Shibori techniques, and leave with:
• 12 dyed cotton samples
• 2 completed bandanas
• Their own Indigo Vat for continued use

I donate my time and materials, and the Community Center provides the space.

Donate today to: Shibori in Oaxaca, Mexico, 2026

I understand that this is a stressful time for everyone. Please turn this time to creativity. Being creative in big or small ways can reduce stress. Using your hands fires long-dormant synapses in our brains that make us feel good, relaxed, and happy. We all need a little bit of that right now - I know I do!!
Please take care and stay healthy!!!
