In the second half of July, the min-min seminar has become a big chorus.
The sound of cicadas reminds me of my childhood summer vacations.

If you were an elementary school student who loved handicrafts, wouldn't you knit accessories with crochet hooks during summer vacation?
Summer vacation is about to start for the kids, and to remember the excitement of those days, we will be holding a crochet fair starting this weekend.

A new crochet kit. A popular person with a silly face.

Habu Textiles thread that started handling from the end of last month. Could you check it?
The Habu Textiles trunk show will be held at the Kyoto store from Friday, July 8th.

Habu Textiles is a yarn and fabric shop started by Takako Ueki in New York.
There was also a store in Kyoto, but it was closed last month.
Some unique materials such as paper and stainless steel are also used, and all the threads shine with their own sensibility. This time we have 8 types of threads in stock.


At the exhibition, we will exhibit samples borrowed from Habu Textiles. Of course we also sell yarn. Because unique materials are used, I'm curious about what it will look like when knitted. Please take a look at it.

This is how the workshop was held last June.
I was a macrame beginner, but...

This is an introduction to the knitting lessons held at the Tokyo store!

Hello.

Many people have purchased the Shawl KAL kit that started selling on Saturday. thank you very much!
Artistincto shawl KAL kit sold out really quickly, sorry. There are still a few Artistincto yarns in the Kyoto store (for example, the ones that could not be used at Shawl KAL due to the length), so please come and visit us.

Well, today is the third styling introduction.
Kyoto store staff Tomo tried on Asagi.
This time, I changed my taste and took pictures outside.

She is 153cm tall, thin, and similar in stature to Tokuko. skirt school.
After all, if you wear S size, it will be a little too much.
When paired with a voluminous long skirt, it feels good around the stomach.

It was a windy day, so I was able to wear it coolly.
Come to think of it, even in the rainy season, there are sometimes cold days, so I think there are many opportunities to play an active role...

Summer Shawl KAL starts today!

KAL is a knitting event called Knitting Along. We all knit the same pattern and proceed with knitting while sharing information. It is an event where everyone can enjoy knitting, which tends to be "alone", by being encouraged by seeing how other people are progressing, teaching what they don't understand.

This time, we will sell a kit for Shawl KAL.
A set of amirisu recommended threads and patterns. There are two types of patterns: a standard shawl and a circular shawl.

First, the standard shawl kit.
For the thread, we have prepared Artistincto lace thread. Artistincto is a yarn that is carefully dyed one by one by Lotta, a Swedish dyer. There are various colors, materials, and lengths, all of which are one-of-a-kind. Due to circumstances, wool thread may be the last in stock this time.
The texture is very good, and the book...

The new magazine " making " by Carrie Hoge , author of the popular pattern books "Madder Anthology" and "Swoon: Maine", which was introduced on amirisu・Walnut, has arrived!

In the first issue, under the theme of "Flora", in addition to knit patterns for women's and children's accessories and wear,
