This is wonderful! I’m trying to learn sashiko and I have purchased a kit with pre-printed design. This will be my next step, drawing my own design and stitching it to learn the spacing on my own. This is very helpful thank you! I love that you showed some of your first projects. Very inspiring to know improvement is possible all it takes is practice!

I have just discovered this and your video is so very helpful. I am excited to try out your tutorial. I have the right type of cloth, but is it okay to use embroidery thread to start out with. I have macular degeneration so i wanted to experiment with it first before spending money incase it is just too difficult for my eyes. Thanks for these two larger patterned designs too as that is what i need to help see things properly. ❤ Thank you.

I believe that Sashiko should be an inexpensive hobby, considering the history of it. This is a bit old video but I talked about finding substitutes for Sashiko specific tools and materials. And, yes, I also use embroidery thread sometimes. Basic Sashiko tools and materials (and their substitutes) for beginners- Sashiko basics Part1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4a1qqd9ob5jqK8 Also, you can make a thimble by yourself too. I have a couple of videos in the Sashiko Basics playlist on my channel😊

I love when people share their wisdom - because some skills are clearly wisdom to me, a sashiko is surely one of them. I’m just beginning to discover that path and i’m so greatful, that I found your content so early in my journey. I also love the stories on instagram. I was thinking about that geometrical patterns and wondering, how people dealt with them like 200 years ago, when there were no eraseable markers. Do you maybe have some insights to share about that?
@thegreenwrapper6 ай бұрын
Hi! I don’t know how people marked on fabric specifically for Sashiko, but a Hera marker is the traditional marker used in Japan. I also use it sometimes. At 05:16 in the video below, I briefly demonstrated how the marks look like when you use a Hera. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqSsfXV7gJ59rKssi=2lFTn-67isR22l99 Another way is that people relied on the lengths of their own stitches. I’ve read that people stitched Hitomezashi without drawing a grid first. I’ve tried it in a video if you’re interested😊⬇️ SASHIKO Disastrous ending? I stitched Hitomezashi without drawing a grid and it didn't go very well kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoWupIVjd8p0Z9U

Thank you for your comment💕 Is your question about holding your needle? If so, I have a video which I talked about the Sashiko style running stitch. This may be helpful for you. Investigating a Sashiko-style running stitch! Sashiko stitching for beginners /How to hold a needle kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2G5p3qcd8qYqsU It’s probably a very different way of holding a needle to what you’re used to, so I think it’s normal to feel uncomfortable at first. Changing to a longer or shorter needle may make some difference but it also took me a while to get used to it😊 I did a lot of practice and I’m still practicing too💕

Yep, im still at this skill level. The size and evenness of the stitch are still problems for me, but only when not paying close enough attention. I did notice that long needles help a lot with keeping the hemline straight.

Evenness is still challenging for me too😅 The stitches don’t need to be perfect and the imperfections adds the beauty of hand stitching❤️ but it’s really good to practice something simple like this to remind myself to pay attention to details👍😊

where do you get fabric / what weight and type of cotton fabric is best for sashiko?
@thegreenwrapper Жыл бұрын
Thank you for the question😊 Generally speaking, cotton or linen materials which are not too tightly woven or not too stiff are easier to stitch. They allow you to stitch many stitches in one go and you can pull out your needle from fabric smoothly. Basically, anything you can stitch easily with your own needle is fine. If you are stitching on a single layer fabric like this video, you can use quite a wide range of materials. The fabric in this video is just quilting cotton. I like to use materials from old clothes or sheets because they are soft. You can also mend denim jeans with Sashiko. If you are making a double-layered cloth called Hanahukin (Sashiko stitched tea towel), then I’ve just made this video talking about how to find suitable materials⬇️ Are there any substitutes for Sarashi? I tried to make a Sashiko Hanahukin using this material. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eX3YeZZ4qrl_h8k What is easy to stitch for you can depend on the length and thickness of your needle too. Test your material with your needle and see if you feel comfortable to stitch😊🧵🪡
