Handiwork of Ningyocho Maternity Specialist Shop "Jolie"
At the front of a Western-style store on the side of Ningyocho, amazake Yokocho.
One day, I found a hand-knitted work with a snail motif being displayed on the wall!
I was attracted to the wonderfulness of the work.
We talked to my mother, who runs the store, and her daughter, Sayaka.
A long-established store over 100 years
First of all, the history of the shop. 。 。 When asked, what was brought out was
Chuo-ku Kyobashi Library, Chuo-ku history map edited and published [Nihonbashi]
By the way, in 1919 there was the name of the family.
In fact, we have been doing business in this area for more than 100 years.…The story has begun.
From the Taisho era to the prewar period, Japanese accessories were introduced.
After the war, it became a Western-style store for people who live and work in the business of a nearby large store (Odana).
They handle underwear and towels, and wear gorgeous women's clothing during the period of high economic growth.
After that, as Ningyocho matured and the number of specialty stores increased, the number of stores specializing in specialty stores increased.
It seems that he turned to a maternity specialty store "Jolie".
*Jolie is French, meaning sophisticated beauty, cuteness, beautiful and elegant.
With the changing times, and with the changes of the people who make up the town
You always read and transform the wind of the times, and as a long-established store, you have reached the present day.
Encounter with T-shirt yarn
Sayaka-san was studying abroad in Italy about 30 years ago.
While learning sticks from my homestay grandmother, I wake up to the fun of hand-knitting.
After returning to Japan, I was helping my mother's shop.
I was influenced by my friend starting knitting with a T-shirt yarn.
Let's make a buggy bag or a cat chigura yourself.
T-shirt yarn is when I made T-shirts and cut-and-sews.
SDG’S handmade material made by reusing excess cutting.
Of Hooked, the Netherlands
Zpagetti (Zpaghetti) is the tip of the trend.
Now it's synonymous with T-shirt yarn.
Yarn has a high quality and abundant color variations, so it is based on the sensitivity of the person who works on it.
It will be reborn as wonderful bags, interior accessories, Amigurumi, etc.
Sayaka was originally a base for knitting in the Italian era.
Even with a simple combination, rediscover the fun of knitting to the fun of changing the atmosphere by playing color!
I'm getting into it more and more.
Using a yarn from ReTwisst, which is easy to obtain in Japan.
One day, I arranged how to make the snail found on the net and finished playing at the store.
Requests and orders will come in after reaching the eye-catching antennas.
It's your inspiration! Various applications
If you look at her Instagram
We are surprised that there are a wide range of applications depending on our customers.
Place it next to it for a place where small birds live. You can hang it in the kitchen to put your garlic. Put a bottle inside and make a vase.
Order with a diagonal strap and make a carry-on.
It's fun to ask for applications and colors that you can't think of yourself.
We will continue to make it as much as we can at our own pace.
It makes your eyes shine when you want to collaborate with an event that expands the possibilities of use.
The other day, I was informed of opening a store at an event.
I also bought a bag of a parrot shell motif that came with Bibibi!
Currently, fans who purchase repeats one after another and are gradually spreading by word of mouth.
It's full of a feeling that it's going to break a big time when it's not too far.
The store will change the display to cherry color in anticipation of the coming cherry blossom season.
When you come to Ningyocho, why don't you stop by and pick it up?
