Sashiko is too ordinary for me to “summarize” what it is. However, what the market (society) want is a short & effective abstract. It is important for me to keep trying to express what Sashiko is – with explaining & involving as much messages as possible.

Live Streaming is one of my challenge to express my wholestory into a few hours. I may repeat the same things over and over (although my intention is to share something new to appreciate the frequent audience – friends). Well, I will think what I can do in Live Streaming.

There are a lot of “imcomplete” information out there. Sashiko, Boro, Wabi-Sabi… most of the Japanese terms I often see do not describe the whole picture of what it is. I guess, it is my responsibility, as a native Japanese, to describe the missing link there. And, Live Streaming is a place where I can practice to do so.

やっぱり配信は楽しいですね。昨晩も素敵な時間をありがとうございました。自己満足に過ぎないのかもしれませんが、それでも「居場所」を作れていることが本当に嬉しいのです。配信の時間、指先にはほとんど意識を向けてはいません。針と布への気配りだけは忘れずに、後は何を話すかに意識を集中させています。きっと……昔、刺し子を楽しんで(苦しみながらも営んで)いた日本人は、そういう布への感謝と、後は「話すことでの現実逃避」という時間を刺し子を通して過ごしていたのかもしれないな……と。

「刺し子の運針」ができるようになると、針目の大きさや揃っているかということを意識することは、ほぼなくなります。針目の大きさも、揃っているかどうかも、リズムを感じ、そのリズムを操れているかどうかです。そんな運針をお伝えしていけたらいいなぁと。刺し子の配信は、そんな僕の活動の原点でもあり、真髄でもあるのかもしれません。

Fantastic description to encourage people to learn more from you. Wish I lived closer as I miss my late teacher & there are so many things I’d always wanted to ask her.
