      Fun and Enjoyable Workshop for Learning about Temaris

      MP_E, Mar 2026
      This is a great workshop for learning the basics of designing patterns and decorating a temari. We learned about how patterns are designed based on the number of "wedges"/hemispheres that the sphere is divided into, selecting colors, adjusting the design for different thread weights, etc.
