GREAT novelty knot for this obi shaped like a cute bat. The soft fabric must flutter a bit when you walk, making the bat wings move (LOVE!).
To shape this knot, OP used rubber bands and a sanjûihimo (3 straps elastic belt, Billy Matsunaga has a tutorial on sewing the 4 straps-variation + see how it’s used here).

The Shikome is the broad stroke term for any number of Kijo, Kijo being the term for female Oni. With garish toothy smiles, long gnarled fingers and often misshapen bodies these yoki are quite the sight to behold. Despite their lack of beauty, by human standards, they have a great passion for cosmetics and are commonly seen donning makeup and wearing elaborate kimonos.
However their fixation with beauty should not be misinterpreted, this Kijo of the underworld are quite dangerous.
A little something to keep the trend of ushering in the Holiday spirit. While not particularly Halloween-y in nature I do think Yokai, or some, are a good blend of folkloric entity and the holiday.

Classy and Creepy
Happy Halloween! An appropriate day to raise myself from the dead, I think. I've just been incredibly busy, travelling and working and whatnot, but I do have some stuff in the works for the next little while.
I knew I had to get this one up today, though. The "obi" is too perfect for a classy and creepy outfit. Funny thing is, it's not an obi at all. It's two table runners from Target! One wrapped twice around the body, and one for the musubi. I wanted to keep the rest of the outfit subtle but still halloween-y so my bat menuki obidome and spiderweb haneri, and then remembered I had this lovely piece of soft spiderweb mesh I found in a remnant bin at the fabric store. It makes the perfect shawl, doesn't it?
I love how this outfit feels seasonal and creepy but totally wearable, and I also love how the two star pieces are both found items that have nothing to do with kimono. The orange accessories were the finishing touch, and they add just the right amount of pop.

Beautiful outfit put together by Mai_Waka for last Halloween. Yet, the komori (bat) and hozuki (physallis) are traditional summer motifs in Japan, perfect for the Obon (festival of the dead) season !
