Recent reviews of Embroidery Workshop: Year of the Horse

  • 5/5 from Bou Merritt, attended Mar 2026: Really fun workshop with a very patient teacher! Thank you Yi Fan for your calm support and help :) The three hours were a bit intense (as I’m not confident embroidering) but it was fun learning new techniques in a safe supportive environment. Green tea and sweets, very enjoyable. Looking forward to finishing sewing my horse!
  • 4/5 from Alice Chen, attended Jan 2026: The energy of the class was great! This project is complicated, and I think it would have helped to have a printed pattern and set of instructions in front of me while we were working. The teacher sent the pattern a couple days after, which I know will be helpful for me in finishing my horse. It's very cute.

YICRAFTS is an east asian handcrafts studio based in north western London in Camden founded in 2019. Its focus is on the beautiful but vanishing traditional handcrafts and cuisine of China’s minority ethnicities. Intercultural sharing is constant and often unconscious throughout our daily lives, and hand crafts are the physical embodiment of culture and cultural sharing.
Founder Yiran is a member of Bai ethnic minority, and she has experienced the great diversity within the UK and London, but I have found that the diverse cultures of China’s numerous ethnic minorities are underrepresented, with ‘China’ viewed as a single cultural source. The opportunity to introduce and share the unique and sometimes surprising customs, traditions and practices of her home province inspires her.
It provides the chance to understand both commonalities and differences in culture, and to understand our shared history.
