Description
December 14 Workshop | Carol Ziogas: Hitomezashi Sashiko
Hitomezashi sashiko- Learning to draft traditional “one stitch” patterns onto fabric to make garments.
Sashiko patterns can be categorized into 2 distinct styles of stitches: Hitomezashi, or one-stitch, and Moyozashi, or patterned stitch. Hitomezashi is typically used for straight lines and angular shapes, where stitches meet or cross. Moyozashi patterns feature curved or straight lines and the stitches never meet or cross.
Students will be making something similar to the pictures, but not copying Carol’s work so your piece may look different.
