Unjustifiable Purchases
I’m a huge fan of Ismoyo’s blog and etsy shop – she finds the most amazing little items and offers them at such great prices. I couldn’t resist her listing for two Japanese crochet books at just $10.00 a pop! It’s totally unjustifiable since I’m only just teaching myself how to crochet (and I can only do a chain, thus far). But seriously, how can you say no to this:
Even though the books are in Japanese, the diagrams seem pretty easy to follow and the bags are really unique and tasteful. She’s got more affordable Japanese Craft books and a plethora of lovely little vintage finds, so check out her shop!

So glad you love them! Don’t forget to show us if you make anything from the books.
And thanks for teaching me a new word to add to my English vocab: Plethora. (yes i had to google it lol)

It will probably be slow going, but I will post once I complete a project!
Haha, I’m glad I could teach you something new! It’s a fun word to say I think

Oh wow, how cute! I think that is worth the money for all the enjoyment you’ll get out of it!

I didn’t know you could also crochet bags! The stuff looks so cute and I wish you good luck on your crocheting~

Thanks! I’m going to need luck! I can’t seem to get very far in my crochet – I knot it up! We’ll just have to wait and see
