    For myself, I started by buying a hanafukin kit that contained three moyōzashi patterns, thread, needles and three styles of thimbles. I did it this way for a few reasons. First, my interest was in creating cloths to use with my tea setup and this one kit would yield three of them. Second, I wanted to understand what the materials “should” be so I could find things around me to use if i wanted to continue. Third, if I decided this wasn’t a type of embroidery I wanted to commit to, I wouldn’t have overbought. So, yes, the $35 I spent for this kit may seem too expensive, but these materials from a Japanese company taught me the craft and I learned enough to understand what I could reuse and purchase economically around me that would be the appropriate weight to make the technique work well.

      Thank you for sharing your experience❤️
      I really love the fact that you were so determined and committed and had the purpose when you started!
      I don’t know much about pre-printed kits but there were so many kits with beautiful and modern patterns in Japan (the ones I showed in this video are from Olympus). They can be a great source for learning different patterns too👍
      Sashiko is an inexpensive hobby in Japan. Those tea towel kits are around 500-600 yen which is around US$4. So I hope that anyone who are interested in Sashiko can start in an inexpensive way and enjoy it for a long time🧵🪡💕

      Many of the patterns I showed (including the one you mentioned) are actually not conventional Sashiko patterns😆 They are old designs mainly from Edo period and I drew up and scaled by myself for Sashiko💕
      Let me see if I can actually explain how to draw it, as the particular pattern was hard to draw😅

    I can't remember if you ever addressed the longer pieces of thread on the back of some of the patterns, if so can you redirect me to that video please. I have been doing a hanafukin where I have tried to go in between the front and back fabric so that there wouldn't be places where it looks somewhat "messy" but don't know if I should do that. I am always so happy when I see you have made a new video, thank you, I never get tired of seeing them.

      Hi❤️💕 Which pattern are you stitching?
      Is it Moyozashi or Hitomezashi? It’s not always easy to find out how the reverse side should look like. I have been posting photos of the reverse side of my pieces on Instagram (which you can see without an account) if it helps.
      If it’s Hitomezashi, I run threads between the layers when I move to the next row and when the length of thread at the back becomes more than 1cm (more than two squares of the grid). If it’s longer than that, it can get caught when you use them later.
      If it’s Moyozashi, I hide all the threads which are not running along the pattern. Even if I need to jump only 1cm or 5mm, I run the thread between the layers. So there won’t be any long threads at the back.
      This is just my personal rule though.

    Thank you - this is a very helpful video. I wish I knew how to remember the pattern names and how to pronounce them. ❤

    • @thegreenwrapper
      @thegreenwrapper  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you! Dan-tsunagi means ‘linked (or repeated) steps’ and Zenigata-Sashi means ‘coin shaped stitch’ (because Japanese coins used to have square holes in the middle hundreds of years ago). Kagome is ‘basket weave’ and Fundo tsunagi is ‘linked weights’. The pattern names are tricky as some of them have multiple names and some names apply to multiple patterns😅
      Sorry about not being able to provide the pronunciation of the patterns. I making videos without voice, as it’s quicker for me to edit and I can release videos regularly🙏🏻

    Another wonderful video. I love the clear guidance you give.
    Recently I’ve been trying some “chicken scratch” embroidery, and had an attempt at an hitomezashi pattern on the gingham grids, it worked quite well!

    • @thegreenwrapper
      @thegreenwrapper  2 місяці тому +1

      I stitched a pattern on gingham once without knowing chicken scratch😅 and many viewers told me about it. It was so fascinating for me! Also, there are many identical patterns with black work too.

      @@thegreenwrapper that’s really cool! I’m definitely enjoying playing with the gingham grid patterns - I only recently found out about it from watching Shannon Makes on UA-cam
      I’m planning to try out some blackwork in the future on my channel, and goldwork if I can afford it! It’s interesting to see how the different styles of stitchery can overlap

    Thanks for sharing some wise tips of wisdom. Here in South Africa, we say "eating an elephant one bite at a time". Do you think it would be better to start with a kit first? I think I should see where I can buy a kit online

    • @thegreenwrapper
      @thegreenwrapper  2 місяці тому +1

      Thank you as always! I am really not sure what the best way is to start as I don’t know much about those kits.
      I started one which I bought in Japan months ago but I actually haven’t finished it yet😅 If you start with a kit, make sure to start with a simpler pattern!
      Many people enjoy pre-printed patterns so it should be a good place to start as well but I don’t see it as the only way to start. I still practice with small scrap fabrics as you can see in this video😉

    Zenigata-sashi looks like cross stitching with straight lines stitched between. I think I can do this one!

      @@thegreenwrapper I'd never heard of blackwork and wondered if it was like redwork so I asked Gemini and it showed me samples of both and explained that blackwork is more structured than the whimsical redwork. I can understand how techniques have traveled with people and changed with cultures and creativity.
