March has been a busy month Schedule a class in the studio for weaving classes in the Santa Cruz Mountains

 Highlights of classes the past few weeks here at SAORI SANTA CRUZ .






SAORI CH60 LOOM HERE . with hight risers . I have looms and accessories  in stock to take home same day.



a note i recieved yesterday from Nadine ...

"I did it!!
I put a new warp on. Once again, your tutorial was superb!
Photos helped immensely, I was a bit nervous, so I was very happy to start with a 50 warp.
After it was on and I did my first few start up rows I realized I had missed a dent. It was easy to fix as it was only 8 threads off from the right side and I hadn't weaved much, only a few rows when I noticed. 
Thanks for making things so easy for us newbies!"
