The founder also personally designed the logo, cleverly incorporating their own name into it. The entire venue consistently reflects this brand image, with the adorable logo visible everywhere. ### ✦Location and Transportation Tuft Tuft Cat, a Taichung Tufting Workshops venue, is located in a residential area on Section 1, Dongshan Road, Beitun District, just a five-minute drive from Expressway 74. There's easy scooter parking right in front of the venue, and paid parking lots are also available nearby. The studio itself features a split-level layout with large floor-to-ceiling windows, ensuring a bright and comfortable atmosphere. ### ✦Classroom Space The studio's main color scheme is pure white, with high ceilings, a mezzanine, and large floor-to-ceiling windows that create an open, bright, and airy feel. The environment is kept exceptionally clean and tidy. Upon entering, you'll change into slippers and put on a work apron, allowing you to fully relax and enjoy the charm of crafting your own rug. The first floor is the DIY workshop area, the main classroom for Taichung Tufting Workshops, accommodating about six groups of students. There's no time limit for classes, so you can complete your ideal piece at your own pace. The second floor is the yarn area, offering a rich selection of about 80 colors. Unlike other venues, there's no limit to the number of colors you can choose, so you can pick as many as you need until you're satisfied! ### ✦Yarn features used in the classroom Tuft Tuft Cat uses incredibly skin-friendly milk cotton, available in over 80 colors. Milk cotton combines the softness of cotton with the warmth of cashmere, making it super comfortable against the skin and an ideal material for handmade rugs. While there are many yarn colors and no limits on selection, those who struggle with choices needn't worry: instructors are on hand to offer advice and help with color matching, ensuring you'll quickly find the perfect shades. Here's another useful tidbit: yarn types. Most Taichung Tufting Workshops use two yarn sizes for rugs: three-ply and eight-ply. The ply count is crucial, as it determines the density and length of the finished piece. Additionally, the yarn material affects the texture and overall feel, dictating whether your creation will be soft and warm or sharp and rigid. Instructors at these venues will meticulously incorporate all these details into their teaching, ensuring you not only master the tufting gun but also gain a deeper understanding of how to work with different yarn materials.

Beyond the standard 45×45 cm, 60×60 cm, and 80×80 cm rugs, you can also choose to make throw pillows, fuzzy mirrors, or tote bags. If you're looking for an even larger size, you can discuss it with the instructor. ### ✦Teamwork makes the dream work Tuft Tuft Cat also welcomes groups to create tufting projects together. Rugs larger than 60x60 cm and tufted mirrors can be made by two people, and there are even discounts for groups of two or more, as well as venue rentals. It's a perfect activity to enjoy with friends, partners, or family, or to bring your parents and grandparents for a fun time in this cozy studio. ### ✦Diffuser Plush Ornament Workshop Beyond the rugs, Tuft Tuft Cat also offers a tufted diffuser ornament workshop. The course fee includes a 200ml bottle of diffuser liquid, six diffuser sticks, and packaging. Participants create three 15x15 cm pieces, which can be used as decorative toppers for diffuser bottles or as coasters—a thoughtful gift or a charming addition to your own home. ### ✦Tufting Advanced Class If you're interested in taking your tufting skills further after the introductory workshop, Tuft Tuft Cat also offers advanced classes. These courses teach you how to create more intricate designs and even craft handmade rugs with three-dimensional effects. Alternatively, you can try a "mix" class, where you'll use two different tufting guns—a cut-pile gun and a loop-pile gun—to add richness and texture to your work.

You can send your chosen image to the instructor three days before your scheduled session. The instructor will then coordinate based on your skill level, the class duration, the size of your project, and the complexity of the image. Once you arrive at the venue, you'll change into your gear, grab your tufting gun, and get ready to show off your skills. ### ✦Custom artwork in collaboration with an illustrator If you'd like to use a pet or a specific person as the image for your rug, Tuft Tuft Cat collaborates with illustrators. Just let them know seven days before your Taichung Tufting Workshops, and an artist can convert your photo into a design, with your choice of art style! The instructors will also handle all communication with the illustrator, ensuring that the difficulty level of the customized design is well within their control, making these workshops perfect for beginners. ### ✦One-hour tufting gun workshop The Taichung Tufting Workshops begin with the instructor thoroughly explaining the tufting gun's structure and how to use it, followed by a practical demonstration of techniques for straight lines, horizontal lines, and curves. The instructors at Tuft Tuft Cat place a strong emphasis on foundational skills, so participants must master the basics before starting their actual DIY rug project. This means the initial practice and instruction alone took an hour, with the instructor continuously adjusting posture and force to ensure correct movements. The instructor also demonstrated common mistakes that can lead to holes, but even beginners don't need to worry. The instructors at Tuft Tuft Cat provide hands-on guidance to every student and regularly check in on progress. They're always ready to step in and help with any issues, which allowed Shiyang to create with complete confidence, without any fear of failure. ### ✦Trimming tutorials you won't find anywhere else All Tuft Tuft Cat Taichung Tufting Workshops include crucial trimming instruction, a key technique that significantly enhances the finished piece's quality and refinement. While this skill is vital, few venues teach it because the process is incredibly time- and labor-intensive for instructors. Many experience venues prioritize quick turnover and, with commercial considerations in mind, simply don't offer this instruction. ### ✦Two tufting gun mix-and-match experience After Tenyang had mostly finished the pattern using the cut-pile gun and trimming techniques, she then used the loop-pile gun to create rich layers and a three-dimensional effect around the edges of the design. The loop-pile gun is used differently from the cut-pile gun, and switching to a new tool was both fun and challenging for Tenyang. With the loop-pile gun, you have to cut the yarn yourself, so forgetting to do so could undo all your hard work! ### ✦Finished work Once the Taichung Tufting Workshops piece is mostly complete, the instructor steps in to help with the finishing touches. What was once a somewhat blurry design instantly becomes refined and exquisite under their skilled hands, with crisp lines and even previously uneven areas becoming perfectly rounded and full. Next, the instructor assists with spraying the non-slip backing with quick-drying adhesive. Unlike other venues that use low-cost white glue, Tuft Tuft Cat uses a quick-drying adhesive that allows you to cut out your rug in just ten minutes, saving a lot of time. After successfully completing her piece, Shiyang chatted with the two instructors at Tuft Tuft Cat and learned that they are dedicated to promoting Tufting education in Taiwan with true artisan spirit. Many people might only try DIY rug-making once in their lives, so why not make the most of those seven hours to thoroughly learn the entire process and techniques, absorb all the instructors' expertise, and create a truly exquisite and solid handmade rug? This is why the instructors at Tuft Tuft Cat are so incredibly particular about their students' work, never compromising, simply hoping that every participant leaves with a piece they are truly satisfied with.

There are a few things to keep in mind: try to avoid circles. It's quite challenging to create a perfect circle when tufting by hand, and if your design has too many crooked circles, it might not turn out as you envisioned. ### ✦Avoid images with complex facial features. If you're making a character, try to avoid facial features or too many figures crowded together. The yarn itself is quite thick, so achieving intricate patterns requires a large enough base area; otherwise, you'll have to compromise on many details and lines. Finally, consider choosing images with larger color blocks. This not only allows beginners to practice and achieve stable output, but also makes large color blocks easier to work with. ### ✦Handmade Rug Care Before heading home, the instructors at Tuft Tuft Cat also shared some important care tips. For example, your rug should never come into contact with water. The fibers are very deep, making it difficult to dry thoroughly after washing, which could lead to mold. If you need to clean it, use a pet brush to comb out the yarn and remove any small fibers.
