This is a pretty amazing video. Not only have you made a simple and easy to follow tutorial that explains how to make a pattern for tabi but you also explained how to weave waraji in the most precise and direct way I have ever seen. Will be recommending this to a lot of people I know that want to make their own tabi and waraji but don't know how to start.
Beautiful lady, Beautiful video. I have a suggestion to deal with the rope ends fraying. Its called wipping the ends of the rope. It's old traditional. So it wont ruin the period accuracy of the project.
I made a pair of waraji a few years ago that i still have. I couldn't get the hang of using my feet to weave so I just made a simple loom with a pine board and nails.( a historian and translator by the name of Gabriel Rosa has a video on it) . they aren't that great on modern hard and polished surfaces because you tend to slip. But fine for outdoors . I need to make another loom because I uses it for fire wood or I could just buy another pair for like $20 but that's no fun. Paracord works well too.
Yea I remember testing them indoors and feeling like I was going to slip. But then again I don't beleive waraji were meant to be worn in doors at all given the culture. Looms are valid. It took a lot out of me to weave with my feet but I enjoyed the process despite feeling sore afterwards. I bet paracord works well, I just preferred jutecord for this particular project cause I liked the texture it gave to the costume. Hope your next waraji loom turns out great. :)
【草鞋(わらじ)の作り方 １】HOW TO MAKE "WARAJI .Ver.1" PPロープで作る沢用わらじ＜地下足袋用＞ I found this demonstration. No commentary, but you get the gist. I think they use rice straw or sea grass for the material
Oh my goodness this is awesome. I am a huge fan of the samurai shoes but I'm blown away that these are for a Kyoshi Warrior cosplay! Two of my favourite things combined! You have my sub. 👏👏👏
This is awesome I want to make them now XD I can't believe she only has 573 subscribers (I am number 573 :p ) because this is such amazing content and quality and she can only get better from here :D
I went with a roll from Joanns which was about 3/8 inches thick (if I am measuring correctly.) I just went with what I could find at a store closest to me, that had enough yardage to work with.
Did you ever figure out a way to deal with the loose end? Apart from that, great tutorial. I used 3/8 from Joann’s and unfortunately I felt it was way too thick so I’m going to try again with 3/16.
@@adrieleje851 yes but more precisely 5mm because that’s the listing I found. I found it worked great for the style I was aiming for. Had to do like 3 test runs before I finally figured it out though and I have a bigger foot than she does so I used a lot of cord in the process.
I don't know how long they last. But it is completely historical to mend your socks. Sewing closed holes and patching them up with either the same or different fabric. All depends what look you are going for. Hope that helps.

cannot get over kartsie casually being like "yeah I'm weaving samurai shoes"
11/10 this is by far the BEST waraji tutorial on YT.
OMG! I am so happy I am on this side of TH-cam. Thanks a lot! That's so niche and interesting :)

Also indigo supposedly wards off mosquitoes
Interesting!
Very impressive
just want to ask, how thick it the jute cord that you"ve been using?

Me gusto como explicarte.

Did you end up going with the 3/16?

This seems like good content overall. Pronunciation could use work tho. :)
This served a good comparison from the traditional style video I found.
that mad cool yo
Did you use buttons on the sock? How did you get in and out of them? Also fantastic video!
There is a slit. And I used ties to tye it around my ankle.
Wow you did so good I want to do that to good job😀😀😀😀😀
SICK
short questions how long last the tabis? I mean they are longer than the warajis. I fear that they are getting holes easily.

@@Kartsie ok thank you! Yes that helps... I will attach thick material to the socks when I sew them :)
