It’s not even half-way through the year, and I already have this year’s tabi<\/em> foot coverings finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tabi in blue linen<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For those of my readers who are not familiar with this tradition, I started sewing my own tabi<\/em> a few years ago to go with my Japanese garb. They are usually made from leftover fabric from garb projects, but it’s just regular fabric, so they tend to wear out pretty quickly. I found that if I make a pair a year, I can keep ahead of the curve and always have at least a few pairs of tabi that are not worn out and shabby looking. Usually, I wind up finishing a year’s tabi<\/em> in January or February of the following year. Not this year! Free time and your wife hosting local sewing circles can do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are made from the blue linen I used for the hippari<\/em> top I made for the field clothing<\/a> outfit from this past December. They’re sewn entirely by hand, including attaching the himo<\/em> ties, which I normally do by machine. This was not a decision to be a stickler about it, just that I was sewing these to have some sewing to do while being social, so why not stretch it out a little bit?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are apparently the eleventh or twelfth pair of tabi<\/em> I have made for myself. Scary. Maybe the next pair will be impractically fancy. We still have some really nice silk brocade sitting around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
