Hokkaido is known for its dairy products. There are plenty of affordable souvenir sweets, like cheesecake and soufflé. I've tried a few and have no complaints about each one, but they all tend to be similar in texture and flavor. So, many of them don't leave much of an impression. But here's one that I thought was different! It's a popular item in curling...

This is the kind of crochet project I made. I wondered how crochet fabric is stretchy, so I tried knitting hand warmers. After knitting and using items for my hands and feet, I felt that hand warmers would be better off with more stretch than leg warmers. This hand warmer is made with crocheted fabric...

This is the kind of crochet project I made: I crocheted a knapsack. It's a larger version of a drawstring bag without a gusset, so you can use it as a drawstring bag without the loops at the bottom. The model is a girl, but it would also look good on a little boy. Using ribbon instead of strings gave it a cute look...

This is a crocheted mini pouch made with extra-thick leftover yarn. It's a simple design, made by knitting three pieces of the same motif. I added ribbon-like decorations and a gold medal-like button to create an emblem. Depending on how you use it, you can put sweets, treasures, or other small items inside the pouch...

Net bags can be used as interior decor year-round, and in the summer, you'll want to take one with you when you go out. The key point is that the bottom is slightly concave and has a gathered look. It looks a bit like the bottom of an apple...

This is the crochet project I made: a crocheted headband made to fit perfectly. The impression changes depending on where you place the crossed ends, so you can wear it differently depending on your mood that day. I used a stretchy cast-on for comfort. There's a video on how to make a stretchy cast-on (see here for more details).

This is the crochet project I made: I crocheted a wash towel using back-and-forth crochet. I used linen yarn, which is durable and perfect for use around the sink. I happened to have some leftover yarn, so I used it up and finished it! I didn't think about the size too strictly, just decided on a rough estimate. The width is determined by the cast-on stitch...
