Rating 4.5

And a relaxing way to spend an hour or two in the otherwise hectic city. Was a nice class, well presented and will treasure the small sheet I will finish at home. Taught me some interesting ways of hiding stiches and a little bit about the calm nature of the technique. Our instructor spome excellent english and the place was well furnished. I would say 3 is about the maximum it can take. Would have been nice to have been told a little more of the history of this craft and a bit of water would have helped in the heat.
