When Chiaki O’Brien rolls into Allegan County and sets up her SAORI weaving looms at the Michigan Fiber Festival this week, her students will learn right away that they are part of one of the happiest growing fiber art movements. I have not studied SAORI in any official capacity, but I ran to my loom after interviewing Chiaki about this contemporary Japanese hand weaving approach designed for everyone regardless of age, gender, disability or intellectual aptitude.
