Kimonogara Scarf and Mitts Set
In July, 2021, I released a double-knit scarf design named Amimoji - Nature Scarf. Between the main motifs of Japanese characters, I used some repeated pattern designs that were reminiscent of Japanese Kimono fabric. I liked the designs so much that I decided to make a stand-alone scarf and fingerless mitts patterns with just the pattern motifs.
The motifs are simplified versions of popular Japanese
patterns (gara), often used for Kimono fabric.
- Tatewaku (Rising Steam)
- Yabane (Arrow feathers)
- Ichimatsu (Checkered)
