The Yarn Journey

The Yarn Journey, shared by Claire, Crochet Designer & Needlecraft Instructor 

On the 26th of June, 2024, Khun Claire, our Crochet Designer, had an opportunity to catch up with her professor of Moulage, Khun Narin, Founder of Narin Couture. The key take-away she learned is all about craftsmanship as well as his determination in tailor career that she can apply for crochet fashion.

Special thanks to Professor Narin for this knowledge sharing and be a part of our journey. Learning from experts always inspires our crocheters and team!



The Yarn Journey — เส้นทางแห่งไหมพรม เรื่องราวจาก คุณแคลร์ Crochet Designer & Needlecraft Instructor 

เมื่อวันที่ 26 มิถุนายน 2024 คุณแคลร์ Crochet Designer ของเรา มีโอกาสกลับไปพบและพูดคุยกับ อาจารย์นรินทร์ ผู้สอนวิชา Moulage และผู้ก่อตั้ง Narin Couture สิ่งสำคัญที่คุณแคลร์ได้เรียนรู้จากการพูดคุยครั้งนี้ ไม่ได้มีเพียงเรื่องของ งานฝีมือและความประณีต (Craftsmanship) แต่ยังรวมถึง ความมุ่งมั่นและความตั้งใจในการประกอบอาชีพช่างตัดเย็บ ของอาจารย์นรินทร์ ซึ่งเป็นแรงบันดาลใจที่คุณแคลร์สามารถนำมาประยุกต์ใช้กับการออกแบบ แฟชั่นโครเชต์ ของเธอได้

ขอขอบพระคุณ อาจารย์นรินทร์ สำหรับการแบ่งปันความรู้ ประสบการณ์ และแรงบันดาลใจ รวมถึงการเป็นส่วนหนึ่งของเส้นทางการเดินทางของเรา เพราะการได้เรียนรู้จากผู้เชี่ยวชาญและผู้มีประสบการณ์ ยังคงเป็นหนึ่งในแรงบันดาลใจสำคัญที่ช่วยให้ทั้ง นักถักโครเชต์และทีมงานของเรา ได้เรียนรู้ พัฒนา และสร้างสรรค์สิ่งใหม่ ๆ อยู่เสมอ ทุกการเรียนรู้ คืออีกหนึ่งก้าวของการเดินทางบนเส้นทางงานฝีมือของเรา
