  • We will welcome our colleagues Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld, to help us examine the flow of our lessons, from beginning to endings; how our handwork lessons help the children breathe through the day; and how we draw threads between our colleagues’ work and ours. We will also be making knots together, exploring and sharing braiding techniques, and making some beautiful temari balls.
