Hokusai Summer Begins - May 31
Join us on Saturday, May 31 to celebrate the opening of the Hokusai Exhibit at College of DuPage.
Stop by to see the DanDoh trunk show. Japanese Knitwear designer Yumiko Alexander has sent us several samples as well as her Linen and Silk + yarns to make them. Yumiko's designs are known for her harmonious blend of simple shapes, rich textures, and unique stitch patterns that cater to all body types.
We will also be trying out several Japanese snacks.
