Embroidery with knots Masterclass with Adriana Torres
We have adored Adriana's work for years, from her charming crocheted toys at Miga de Pan to her stunning botanical embroidery samplers. It's a special occasion to have her at Loop, visiting from Argentina, and we're beyond excited to welcome her back!
Join Adriana Torres of Miga de Pan, as she guides you through the art of embroidery with knots, creating stunning textures that will bring your projects to life.
Experience the ancient stumpwork technique, adapted by Adriana so you can achieve the same beautiful results.
This workshop will teach you how to create a variety of stitches, all derived from the same base stitch, a technique Adriana has spent over a decade perfecting. She'll also show you how to master her uniquely developed stitches, Japa Mala and Coffee Beans, as well as how to blend colours in needle lace.
With a printed fabric featuring a design inspired by her trip to Denmark, along with threads, needles, and a handmade guidebook, this truly one-of-a-kind workshop will provide you with all the tools you need to continue your embroidery journey at home.
All materials are supplied by Adriana and Loop.
