Amazing!! What is this Thai Kaftan you are making! My mind is spinning with inspiration already! I have always wanted to but still never made a Kaftan!
@@houseofkimono haha, stop spinning, it’s nothing other than a batik ready made thing, a proper Thai one though,a neighbour gave it to me, was not going to use it but glad I did as it made me feel summery. I just cut out a circle for neck line and biased bound it. Sewed up sides..you know the thing, too basic for you though! Gorgeous turquoises and jades though! I have an iPad Pro but god knows what doing on it..having also seen Procreate today I may treat myself. God what a dinosaur I am, a lifetime ago, I studied textile design but it should have been fashion! Are you in London? I am in sleepy Somerset! X
Oh brilliant!! I love procreate! I have another channel where I do fashion illustration in procreate its linked somewhere on my profile here, its “alex douglas newton” its the best thing that ever happened when I started using it!! I used to live in Clifton just near the suspension bridge but this yeah I moved to Manchester! I would love to be a fashion designer, I think one day I will be. What would you make?
No, yukata are always made of cotton, i think now you may find some poly blends but they are most often made of one layer of cotton. If you are wearing one between onsen in the winter, you may layer up with underclothes or have a particularly warmer haori, perhaps padded with silk floss or made of a wool blend.
Haha..still watching you here this evening after finding you this morning! A few sewing and eating breaks in between! Love it all xx

@@houseofkimono Hi there Alex, hope you got the photos of my vintage robe sent by email, give you an idea!
I didnt!! My email is studio@houseofkimomo.com i cannot wait to see!!
Not all hero wear capes. Some wear yukatas. Thanks for the pattern!
Thats so lovely! Thank you! Will you make one?
thats dude, helped a lot with my school project
Oh thats so exciting what are you making?
Are there winter yukata
No, yukata are always made of cotton, i think now you may find some poly blends but they are most often made of one layer of cotton. If you are wearing one between onsen in the winter, you may layer up with underclothes or have a particularly warmer haori, perhaps padded with silk floss or made of a wool blend.
Once you start adding linings and using other textiles you have moved into the Kimono realm, a rather nice realm to be!
I’d add a wool under robe to the yukata for winter and a wool jacket kimono over it all
Yeah! Its all about the layers in Japan!
