Japanese Braiding (Kumihimo) in Blackpool
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 сен 2012
- Yuko Howes of Japan Outpost (www.japanoutpost.org.uk) visited Marge, a keen member of UK Braid Society in Blackpool, to learn about Japanese braiding (Kumihimo). Although I'm Japanese, I had never tried braiding, so it was fascinating to watch her!
To learn more about braiding, please watch this new video • Let's learn Japanese B...
For anyone who has not learned crochet, knitting, weaving etc., there's a calming almost meditative feeling to many handcrafts.
Suenette Edwards Absolutely agree. I crochet for my anxiety and ADD. It calms me down and keeps me focused.
Just started my 6 & 9 yr old grands doing kumihimo with simple disk pattern today and they love it. They were amazed by this video! Thanks for sharing!
I used to do a lot of needle work crafts, but haven't in years since starting work in a design industry. I get my creative ya-ya's from work. But this really makes me want to get my hands on it again. Can't wait for retirement. I shall knit and crochet the world!
🌈🦋Those r beautiful ! Wonderful of you to keep these handcrafts alive! When I was a girl my dad braided my hair in a seven strand braid before I went on the trip to Europe and I was so homesick I left the Braid in for three months. Till it finally fell out. He used to braid horse manes and tails for show horses and some of them were very intricate with ribbons and such he braided 🎀 with mine in Scarlet and blue. And it brought that memory back watching you make your fancy braid. Thank you again. O those peaceful hours of Creation...🗝💜🙂💝
you can get books videos and supplies for this kind of thing on Amazon. you can always start with a simpler pattern and set up😉
I'm watching this while crocheting, so I totally get the satisfaction of making something with your own hands. This is fascinating; I think I will try this for myself!
I hope when I retire I can do these hobbies for real and travel to learn all these arts
You don't have to wait until you retire my friend! You can start now and just do a bit in your free time to unwind in the afternoon or the night while sitting in front of the tv (or whateven screen you're using)! You don't really need to travel to learn them (while it is always enriching to do so). You could learn from someone locally because of how multicultural the world can be (although I'm not sure if other places are as Multicultural as Australia - If it wasn't obvious from that, then yes I am Australian)
This is outstanding, such a complex set of movements. I am in awe.
When will you do a tutorial on the blue, black & white braid? Cause I definitely wanna try it out myself.
I have never seen or heard of this before. I love all kinds of needlework and weaving. I love many kind of projects using my hands. This is fascinating and beautiful! Thank you for sharing this wonderful work of art! :)
Sharon
this woman has TALENT. i cant even do that!
Thank you so much for this video! Both seem to be quite meditative, especially the 3rd one. I'd never heard of either one before. The 2ndd one where she was weaving.... I would love to learn that... well, all 3 for that matter! I love learning about different ways to use yarn/string/fiber.
so so nice to complicated for me to try, but im fascinated with this. so pretty
Eleven years ago? Wow! How'd this get here? Interesting Lady. Both of them, actually.😂❤
I found it rather funny that I found this in my feed, when I have just watched 'Your Name' with my son last night. Of course it's because I've been watching lots of craft videos. But still.... the timing made me laugh. As for the braiding, I found it fascinating. Such beautiful work.
Nice
such beautiful and intricate work.
Que trabajo más hermoso, que tipo de hilo es? algodon, lana, etc. Te felicito, un saludo y un abrazo desde ciudad de Guatemala, Centro America.
I find that while watching you I am reminded a little of bobbin lace but with more color. And not quite bobbin lace obviously but it does remind me of the twisting and movement of bobbin lace.
Beautiful work and a beautiful house as well! She seems so lovely and patient. Doesn't heed the shouting outdoors. She's completely immersed and calm. Does she sell her pieces and what does she do with them?
Can you do a video of this braid method with the camera pointing at the braid so I can understand it a bit more, learn, & try it out for myself.
Extremely interesting, I am interested in learning to use the takadai
Gorgeous, Marge!!!
Thank you so much!
Fascinating!
Hello from France.
Thanks for this vidéo. What 's an amazing job. I enjoy to do this kind of thing! I'm a woodworker too, and i'm very interested for doing the support with wood. Few times ago i have seen a vidéo from Mr Ishitani, bulding it! It makes me lots of ideas for buising me for the rest of the years. We 've got something similar in France. It'calling "les dentelles du Puy". I like your video style. Thank'a lot.
Impresionante!!
Thank you very much for this wonderful video. I am German and I am looking for a course about Kumihimo in the North of Germany. It is possible to learn it in Germany with the wooden material? I am not interested in the offered pucks in the books.
I'm afraid I don't know. But they hold an international conference every 2 years or 4, so that means people from many countries must be doing kumihimo. Maybe if you contact The British Braid Society, they might know more. All the best.
Que hermosa actividad! Felicitaciones para la tejedora!!!!!! Gracias por compartir :D
Buenas trdes Donde puedo encontrar más tutoriales de lo .mismo ,me da referencia por favor. ? En español.
Wonderful! Thank you.
So funny I'll try it.

Anouk
.It look so interesting to keep u busy.
VERY NICE
Very nice well done keep it up
Muy interesante me gusta
That's fascinating -- it's a bit like bobbin lace with no pins and no pillow.
i think this is awesome
very pretty work great video but this looks like the friendship bracelet from hell. lol i don't have the patience for this i wish i did. omg thid would drive me batzoid ... great work though for someone more committed
I can't help thinking it would be easier with lace bobbins, the thread on the card seems really unwieldy. Lovely work though :D
Brigitte McLean I was thinking lace bobbins on a frame. This looks cumbersome.
The yarn looks a bit too thick for bobbins.
It kind of reminds me of bobbin lace making,
I live in Blackpool Yuko can you come here again?
This may have been said already, but it resembles a loose type of bobbin tatting.
That is VERY similar to how lace is made. :)
wow
Finger weaving is also very similar and used by Native americans
Это сколько ж нужно времени и сил потратить на такую прелесть. Похвально.
Very fascinating! I'd love to know where to purchase some of these looms!
Yo quiero esa máquinas donde se encuentran soy colombiana
Elizabeth Sandoval Montilla
I like to get me a stand like that I do this on a small disc where can I get a stand like this doing this calm my nerves
Good Lord, this is for serious Kumihimo enthusiasts.
Please contact The Braid Society UK. They should be able to help.
what do you call this loom? Where can you get one?
Takadai..............
That would take a lot of practice. I’m confused already!
we love you here in burnley can you come here some time
wow yuko i love you
SO...MANY...STRINGS😯😯
É muito complicado!
It is so difficult & confusing that I could Never do a complex braid..
Please contact The Braid Society. They should be able to help you.

It is si,liar to Bobbin lace without using pins jeje
HOBBY'S
I can see why this video never got any views. Because we can't see the device.
高台は組目が左右同じ高さにして下さい。丸台の玉は同じ長さにして下さい。
貴重なご指南をどうも有難うございました。

How can y'all do this crap. Like crazy hu
this thecnic are mexican
every culture has their own way of doing things... this happens to be the Japanese style.
+toni maya (Mayantigo Guerra) - yes, these braids are also ancient Andean, only you could do them in fingerloop style in the Americas; this technique done on the karakumidai is also its Japanese cousin from a long time ago. Makes a person wonder how much folks were trading back and forth on boats, or whether these ideas, if not the same methods, came across the Bering Straits as early as any people did?
+gorillagirl3344 When I saw this first it strongly reminded me of a German Craft called Klöppeln,(just saw that it is called bobbin lace in English) one uses pins to create holes and creates lacy structures that way. The different strands are moved in a very similar fashion to the way in the video. :-)
+Ruth Temple No real question that should kick you is 2 cultures came up with same idea across the globe. Americans found center of Universe in 1980 with NASA and Peruvian Indian's found the center of Universe in 1396. Doubt they copied each other's work! Lucky we have away to record history through video and not stone or drawings. So idea of God passing knowledge around remains a mystery. Is it God or are people able crunch numbers so well we actually have same ideas? Remains question of all.
There are a lot of next-technology-leap inventions around the globe that occur to folks in unconnected (as far as anyone knows) locations: figuring out cold iron is a textbook case, but there are countless examples.
How one makes, as in this case, a certain shape of braid, varies from culture to culture.
These are beautiful, but are what we called "friendship bracelets" growing up. The weaving apparatus is quite large and intricate, but us kids and tweens accomplished many a lovely pattern by don't selecting the desired colors, then tying them in a knot, and anchoring it to something with a safety pin, etc. Not knocking the "Japanese braiding" way of doing it. Just sharing that it's an old, and common art form, for it's simplicity (IMO).
OOoooooo Ahhhhhh Mmmmm Owwwww Awwwww Ummmmm Uhhhhhh , I see....
She is totally being investigative, and is not happy about a different culture of people practicing her people's traditional cultural ways! The world would be a better place if everyone stopped COVETING every thing on earth, and shared more. Don't nothing belongs to any one person or people! Geez!
You're an imbecile. Of course she's being "investigative." That's what she's supposed to do in order to inform her viewers. She's not at all negative, nor does she present herself as unhappy that another culture is "practicing her people's traditional cultural ways." If anything, she seems impressed by the artisan's depth of knowledge and appreciative of her design aesthetic.
J R So immediately putting another's observations down is the way you begin a comment? Who's the imbecile?
@ Suenette Edwards So you imitate it, then?
I never got the impression that the lady doing the interview was acting or saying anything that implies that she is doing or saying anything you have posted here. Quite the opposite. Plus it says in the description she's never did this or seen it
How do u know she's japanese?
wow
