I had to smile when you said you had bought a used knitting book from the Tacoma library. That is where I live! Small world. I just happened on your channel this moment and here you are talking about Tacoma! I love the tour of all the yarn shops and the yarn. Amazing colors.
The more I move around the world the smaller it becomes. I'm always finding weird links to the people around me! Aren't the shops in Tokyo cute? They do such a good job at displaying their yarn.
Okonomiyaki!!! I had this when I lived in Vancouver. A Japanese native opened a restaurant there and made this. So good. I loved the Amirisu shop. Beautiful. Thank you for sharing your trip.
I have a hard time picking favorites but I was welcomed so warmly in the Amirisu shop! I could have done a lot more shopping there but my suitcase was precariously full. I actually ended up filling a shopping bag with yarn and using it as my carry on for the flight home.
This is such a fun video! I'm going to Tokyo this summer so have been on the lookout for yarn shops where I can buy local yarn. Your video made me so much more excited for it 😊
Hi,Deanna
Glad to know you have accomplished your goal of climbing up Mt.Fuji.
Hope you found your visits to yarn shops in Kanto Area quite satisfying.
I also live in Japan.(japanese😊)in Chubu Area.
Look forward to hearing more about your knitting life in Okinawa.
matane😊！
I was so proud of myself for finishing the Mt Fuji hike! All week I thought I wouldn't be able to make it up the mountain. Have you climbed Mt. Fuji?
Stumbled on this video looking through Japanese (yarn) craft stuff. Really enjoyed it! I had to giggle at the robot in the restaurant. I live in the Netherlands and a a couple of months ago we saw one of those at a Dutch restaurant too. Now that I've seen this I think it is very possible that this robot originates in Japan because the robot we saw showed a cat face on the display occasionally, which was just the cutest thing (the robot itself seem to have cat ears which completed the face). It was basically an aid to busting tables, so the servers would load it up with dishes and then 'send it' to the kitchen to be unloaded. I would love to visit Japan one day and your video helps me get oriented on the idea. I am a weaver as well as knitter/crocheted (also do a bit of Kumihimo and temari). I would love to see some traditional yarn craft so if you have any tips, that would be so great!
Japan is starting to open it's boarders back up to travel. You should come and visit! I find it fairly easy to travel in Japan, google translate goes a long way but frankly there are a lot of English speakers around. I personally love the kasuri weaving and the bingata or tsutsugaki dye techniques.
Glad to see you seem to have your knitting mojo back! This was just the perfect thing to watch when I was feeling my own world is currently quite small.
Yarn shopping always brings back the knitting mojo!
I really really REALLY enjoyed this episode. A bit of knitting, a lot of yarn shopping and even the Mount Fuji travelogue. Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed it! It took forever to edit and there's so much more footage I didn't manage to fit in. But I really enjoyed putting the episode together.
Im going to tokyo next week! But apparently keito is temporary closed now. But i definitely going to all the yarn store you went!
Awesome shopping and thank you for sharing your trip, very interesting.
Glad you enjoyed
Thank you so much for sharing! It was amazing to come along on your journey.
You are so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it. This really was my favorite episode to put together!
What an amazing view looking down at the clouds, I loved seeing your journey 😊
It's funny when I look back at the video where I'm near the top, my voice sounds like I'm whispering but I think it was the altitude, my voice took a while to recover. I'm so glad I hiked it though!
Excellent thank you
Just stumbled upon your episode. My family and I climbed Fuji-san in '19 so Ioved reminiscing as I watched and heard about your experience. We had a very packed trip so I didnt even dream of suggesting yarn shop visits. Now I know where to go next time we visit. Thank you.
The drive in and out of Tokyo was pretty expensive. If I did it again I might spend a few nights in Fujiyama and then move and spend a few nights in Tokyo.
Thank you for episode! That was really interesting!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
So fun to watch...love it, and you did an amazing job climbing Mount Fuji, congratulation :)
Yay, thank you!
Absolutely, beautiful, awesome, lovely episode!! Glad the knitting 🧶 mojo is surfacing!!!! Mine is slowly!!!
The worst part about getting the knitting mojo back is now I want to cast on everything but I have all these unfinished wips from when the mojo was low. Must finish a few projects before I jump into the my Tokyo haul!
Hi!! I'm traveling to Japan and this is a huge help! I am just wondering if you happen to know where can I buy crochet hooks in Tokyo? Thank you so much!
What was it like being on top of the clouds or in the clouds ☁️? Maybe in the next episode a little share? 👍😃
What came to mind when I was above the clouds was all the shots I had taken during my plane flight. All those shots were the transition through the clouds. It felt funny to think that I had climbed on foot a similar path that the plane takes during takeoff.
Wow that chartreuse Parade yarn is gorgeous!
Isn't it! I've been looking at it a lot this week thinking of casting something on. I bought it with the Olive Leaf Pullover in mind but the more I look at the pattern I'm not sure that's what this yarn is meant to be.
It’s so beautiful I can’t wait to see what you do with it! PS Going to Japanese yarn shop (Misawa) & getting to buy my first yarn is one of my most treasured memories! Blessings
I enjoyed this video very much. Congratulations in climbing Mt. Fuji. 😊
Thank you very much! And I'll never do it again.
Love video i love travle when can
What fiber is the #air made of? Did you use it yet?
84 % Acrylic14% Mohair 2% Wool. I made the Metropolis sweater by Tanis Lavelle but I use the color work charts from Tecumseh from Caitlyn Hunter. www.ravelry.com/projects/HaxtonKnits/tecumseh
My friend actually lives by Mt fuji
That's cool.... but also a little scary. There was a map showing the area a round Fuji that was affected the last time it erupted and it's all full of houses now! But the area is so beautiful, I love all the lakes. Since I was living in Okinawa the area around Fuji is so strikingly different, the architecture and landscape are just so beautiful.
Ive the colors in your. Top
Thank you! It was all from a mini skein kit from Tanis Fiber Arts. The blue color is peacock and it is my favorite yarn!
