More information about Saori Handweaving Workshop : 

The "sa-" in "saori" is a Zen Buddhist term that means "each thing has its own unique quality" and the "-ori" means "weaving."  Thus saori  is more than just a technique, it is the philosophy that each person has a latent intuitive, creative power and the aesthetic that embraces the natural beauty of unintended "mistakes" and encourages exploring the unknown.  It is an artistic yet practical path of meditation, stress reduction, and identity-building.
