Best ¥2000 gift to myself ever. ❤️ This is a yarn winder, which does exactly what you’d think. This is faster and neater than I could ever do by hand!

New yarn is expensive but thrift sweaters are cheap. I’m literally getting a sweater’s worth of cotton-blend yarn for ¥300.

So excited to take this sweater apart and use the yarn!! Look at the color!

Happy Halloween!

Today I decided to dress up as a monster—the kind who disturbs little kitties who are sleeping.

I used to be able to find a lot of everyday dishware, utensils, household supplies and storage, and way more kimono and yukata.

Today it felt like a flea market for one type of person instead of many. Look how many stalls are JUST racks of identical styles of like-new clothes.
