#Identification

[identifying-cat-phenotypes]

This kitten I was caring for passed today, and I want to immortalize her in some way. So would you identify her phenotypes?

Her nickname is Tini, short for Mewtini. She was very strong and very brave so I want everyone to meet her. Thank you for this in advance.

Rest in peace Mewtini, she seemed to be a black mackerel tabby tortoiseshell with white

Every morning we hop a little fence. Esper gets all jazzed about it, like we are doing something bad, so she shoots me this look like “OHHH MAN, we gonna get in soooo much trouble.”

The reader will project her feelings into several characters, each one of whom will carry some element of her divided “self.”

A Look In My Book!

On The Twelfth Day of Fun I present... a look inside my book! Thank you for making The Guide To Kimono such a success! For those of you who have bought a copy already, thank you so much! For those of you who are on the fence or just want to know more before you buy, then this is for you! First, let's look at some pages that relate to the karyukai, specifically, that of hikizuri/susohiki:

Next, let's look at darari obi:

For those of you who continuously ask about how to date and price your kimono, this book is full of information to do just that and examples to give you ideas of what's worth what. Here's a snippet on what can raise or lower the price of your kimono:

Prior to this page is an index of over 150 common, uncommon, and rare kimono motifs in English, romaji, and kanji (with visual examples to boot!). Another example of a page that shows how to date is as follows:

You may have noticed that the estimated price on the kimono shown on the page above has changed since I featured it a few days ago. This is due to some newer kimono coming onto market in the past year that have sold for similar prices that were higher than the published price, but that price on the page would still be considered a fair price if trying to sell (which are what the prices in the book are). So, if any of this has interested you then you can pick up a copy at any of the links below: Amazon America (currently on sale!) Barnes & Noble USA Amazon Canada Indigo Canada Amazon UK (also on sale!) Waterstones UK Schiffer Publishing Worldwide (Small Edit: So apparently the links are working on and off and may be having an issue on Tumblr's end right now [I double checked the URLs and they are correct], so if they're not working then just go to the websites themselves and type "The Guide To Kimono" into the search bar. Thanks!)
