[Announcement]  (1) I restored the Youtube video of yesterday’s live streaming. I talk about “Sustainability and Sashiko”. I rewatched it and found it interesting (although it was my talking…). Check it out. (2) I appreciate all the Sashiko supply orders. Under Covid-19, in order to complete the international shipping, all the package requires the phone number. If you haven’t received a package/update, please check your email box since I have sent several requests. As of Sep.7, due to several cases, your phone number is required on all the orders. I am aware that some do not feel comfortable to provide phone number. I will be careful & the website is SSL certified. Thank you for your understanding.

In re-watching yesterday’s talk, I realized that I may have made a quite strong statement (based on my assumption) – Sashiko (刺し子）’s translation may not be “Little Stubs” after all. I also introduced some stories to support my assumption. Well, if I am going to challenge common sense from my personal logic, then I want the audience to know who I am. I am not that comfortable to show my face on screen, but I will do my best to share “Who is Atsushi” with visuals.

昨日の配信。よくよく考えてみると、「刺し子の英訳は”Little Stubs (小さい針目）”」じゃないんじゃないの？と既存の権威に物申す形になってしまっておりました。勿論、正解も間違いもないという信念は貫いているので、詰め寄る形にはなっていませんが、でも、聞く人にとっては都合の悪い話だったかもしれません。

実は、思いを伝える際に、「米びつに砂をまかないようにだけはしよう」とできる限り気をつけてはいるのですが、でも、結果的にまいちゃうこともあるわけで。その際、「誰が巻いているのか」だけは伝えるべきだと思うので、もう少し顔出ししていこうかなと思います。結果的に論争になるにしろ、当事者になる以上、姿容は見せておかないとと思うのですよ。30kg増量してるので、あまり顔出しはしたくないんですけどね……。鏡見る度、「おぉ……親父……」となって、20代の僕の面影”しか”ありません（笑）
