Silai Bunai sessions over tea

Silai Bunai sessions over tea

My mother Renu, and I have been running our homestay, Haamro Ghar since 2012. This experience is one of the activities our guests like to participate in with us.
Silai-Bunai in our language translates to as Sewing-Knitting. We learned and started woolwork since our teen years, mostly for ourselves and for home decor. But when we saw that others were interested in learning this form of handicraft, we began sharing our learnings, tips, and expertise.
With around 20 years of experience in various forms of yarn/thread work such as crochet, embroidery, stitching, sewing, and knitting, we want to save the art of handmade (over machine-made) by making it fun.

Itinerary

When you arrive at our place, we will welcome you and talk a little about your passion or interest in woolwork. Once you let us know which type of yarn or thread work you would like to learn or explore, we will sit with you and help you through the design and craft, discussing the ways to do it. You can try different forms, designs, depending on your interest and skill level. This is not a class, rather a fun activity and so we would love it if we can exchange tips and ideas, learn some from you too. We will serve tea around half-time to get the enjoyment going.
If you'd like to suggest another schedule, please let us know and we will try to work it out.
