New Blue Bow!

This summer vacation, making things has occupied my time. I made this blue bow a week ago, but wasn't able to upload it for some reason. I also have another picture I want to upload, but it's not uploading either. I'm looking forward this summer to making more things. The thing is, amigurumi (crocheted or knitted toys) are difficult to make, and there aren't many patterns I can find that fit in with the cute subcultures of Japan. For now, I'll have to rely on my brain to come up with things, just like I did with this bow!

Crafts and Knitting Inspiration

My interest in knitting was sparked up again after being inspired by fairy kei fashion!

I've been knitting for a few years now, and have been crocheting for a few days.

My interest in crafts faded over a span of almost ten years, but I'm back at it again! The crafts I mostly do are scrapbooking, and knitting. I'm beginning an interest in sewing, embroidery, and crocheting.

I've been thinking for a while about putting what I've knitted up (of course, inspired by Japanese fashion!) It all begins with that bow in the above picture. That was my first Japanese fashion-inspired creation, with many more along the way! The bow still seems a little plain to me, if it were to be coordinated into fairy kei, but I am still a beginner venturing into that fashion.

I've become so inspired from those who are selling what they made. It makes me want to open my own business. That thought is still not too serious yet, so I'll have to keep thinking about it.
