2026/9/10 PR
A day spent engrossed in crochet. A beloved sweet treat to take a break. Suddenly realizing you've been crocheting for hours, you let out a big stretch. Don't you ever have moments like that? Taking a break from your needles, enjoying your favorite drink and sweets. And when you find a new sweet treat to try, that usual break feels even more fulfilling. Today's...

: [Jul 16 | Updated] Crochet in Progress: This summer's straw hat
2026/7/17
July 16, 2026. Unable to catch up. It's definitely too late for the summer season... but I still want to knit. It's a complicated feeling. As I knit, I gradually begin to wonder if this is the right time to be knitting, and I end up putting it down. I'm past the peak of pattern making, so I don't want to give up on releasing it this season. However...

July 29, 2026 The Relaxing Peak Phase The new phase of experimentation is over, and we've entered the peak viewing period. At this point, there's a sense of relief knowing the finish line is in sight. I had intended to leisurely enjoy this relaxed phase, but as soon as the next design I want to knit crossed my mind, I suddenly felt impatient. A plain, new type...

: [Jun 3 | Updated] Crochet in Progress: Star motif snack mat
2026/6/3
[6/3] A Star-Related Trial Every time I knit a star motif, I find a new way to use it. I spent quite a bit of time choosing yarn at a craft store I stopped by with only a vague idea in mind. It's yarn for knitting a new star-themed project. I'm imagining it will be a rather sophisticated and stylish piece. This is my first time...

: Crochet & Sweets: A Taste of Hokkaido, Vol.8 "Butter cheese sand Petit"
2026/3/2
I recently discovered the "Petite Butter Cheese Sandwich" from Ferme La Terre Biei. Apparently, Ferme La Terre also has a wonderful restaurant in Biei. This sandwich is made with two types of cheese, Hokkaido cream cheese and mascarpone, and an original blend of 100% Hokkaido flour. The carefully selected ingredients are definitely "the best...".

: Crochet & Sweets: A Taste of Hokkaido, Vol.7 "Kibana"
2021/12/31
I bought my favorite sweet, "Kibana." It's a product of Tsuboya Sohonten, a confectionery shop in Asahikawa. It's easy to find at New Chitose Airport, but it has a somewhat understated image. That's why it feels like a special treat (though it's probably already famous), but on Tsuboya's product page...
