Overview

It is an experience of weaving cloth using a traditional textile machine.We use a machine exclusively for children that is relatively easy to operate. Weave cloth for about 40 minutes using thread used in Oshima's traditional pongee kimono. Choose the colored thread that children like and knit it with both hands and feet.You can finish it during the day and take it home.  This will also be a memory of the children's journey.
