In this engaging workshop, participants will explore the intersection of Māori carving traditions and Japanese knitting techniques through the "Whakairo Cowl" pattern. This session is designed to teach the art of translating the intricate patterns found in Māori whakairo (carving) into the precise and meticulous world of Japanese knitting stitches. Attendees will gain hands-on experience in crafting a cowl that embodies rich cultural aesthetics and detailed stitch work, reflecting both Māori and Japanese influences.
