cheery projects

Lately, I've been spending my nights working on those holiday decorations.

I'm totally in love with making those less useful objects. It's about their shapes, colors, and the feel, rather than their functionality, technique and clean finish that is needed when making bags, clothing, etc.

Hope they'll look good in the store windows.
Those fluffy yarns drape beautifully.

Not-so-traditional-holiday-color garland,
but I think it will compliment
Kazuki's babySOLAIRE creations. 
Kili loooved those pink stuff
& was sad to see it leave to the store...
Sorry, buddy!

Aya X Yoriko invader hat

Forgot all about this hat. This was knitted by my sister for my friend's son's birthday last year. I created the design and she did the rest. I love this hat. Maybe I will ask her to make another for Randy.

Invader knit.
Out of all the different invaders, I like this jellyfish-like creature.

Kili testing it out.

Season I love to walk on the street

落ち葉がきれいで、
下ばかり見て歩いている今日この頃。



burning color tree!

I just need some apple cider & cider donuts from green market and my day will be perfect.

Those "pink cereal" of my daughter.

holiday 2011

My newest designs are now available online!
I made 5 new holiday cards this year. Along with them, there are of course birthday cards, season-appropriate blank cards as well, so browse and pick some up to send out to your favorite people.

As usual, they are also available at the lovely Creators' Co-Op in Astoria, which is having a store wide event on December 3rd. It is also a part of an avenue-wide event that involves free gifts, so stay tuned.

greetings with personality & love!

好物

今日は娘のリクエストで卵焼き。


「ご飯だよー」
と声をかけるとテーブルの端に両手をかけて、


「わぁー、これ、キリコの好き(な)ヤツだーー!」
と満面の笑み。


こんな小さなことで喜んで幸せだこと。




最近の娘の好きな物:
・ご飯と梅干しは相変わらずで、最近はそれを海苔に巻くのに凝っている。
・カレー味のもの これは母ゆずり
・塩こんぶやしゃけなどご飯の友系
・卵焼き (ぐるぐるのたまご)
・ブロッコリー


NYは日に日に寒くなるばかり。
今日は風が強く、道の落ち葉がカサカサと渦を巻いては吹き溜まりをつくっていた。
