from op:

#baby Kakashi brought the entire pack to the Konoha shinobi uniform factory to order custom headbands for them all#when he was like. four or five or whenever he became a genin#and he got a discount on a HUGE bolt of military grade fabric that will last a lifetime#that's great because he likes blue#he did ask for the same green as the Konoha flak jackets#because it would have been cool if it looked like his ninken were at least chunin ranked and green is a good color#but he'd need special scissors to cut that kind of fabric and sewing would require chakra charging the needle for each stitch#and that would just become really draining after a while#(also it was very expensive)#AAAH ok ok enough. it's so easy to get lost in detail tangents about little Kakashi's everyday ninken chores#and his arts and crafts struggles

@kakashiweek 2024 day 4 - Hobbies

Kakashi has many hobbies. One of his hobbies is to design and sew clothes for his ninken pack. He's very dedicated to his craft and the annual Ninken Clothing Days have been marked in his mental calendar since way back.

The jacket design itself was decided upon after a very brief round of concept sketches (that all looked very much alike) and Kakashi hasn't seen any reason to change things up since then.

It wasn't difficult to figure out how to do sewing. The trickiest part was finding the right books before he knew what he was looking for. As soon as he did it was pretty much basic math and handling sharp objects and he was already very good at those things.

Every year Kakashi gathers the ninken to take their measurements. This is a good opportunity for a health check as well, although it's difficult to focus when all the dogs get worked up over who has grown the most since last fall and whether or not Kakashi will pick a new color this time around (Kakashi won't)

The most time consuming task is the embroidery. Kakashi briefly considered simply painting on the fabric but after just one round of testing it was clear that ink would not withstand repeated uses of his laundry jutsu. That's fine though because Kakashi doesn't mind spending time on embroidery. He enjoys it quite a lot actually. There is something both soothing and satisfying about setting up the pattern and then following it over and over and over again, producing perfect identical copies of his original artistic vision. Kakashi brews tea and does his needlework in peace while listening to the house creak in that familiar way it does when the seasons change.

When all the ninken jackets have been sewn and ironed and neatly folded it's time for the fitting. This is the best part because the dogs get very excited every year, even though the procedure never changes. Kakashi summons them one by one and takes his time to make sure he got all the measurements right and that the ninken can move freely without any chafing or discomfort. He's gotten really good since his first collection so there is rarely any need for adjustments. There is always a need for scratches and cuddles though <3

Sometimes i think about how kakashi went from saying "im leaving/im home" to an empty house as a kid to a house full of people and i become violently ill. So these are vignette's of Kakashi's family as time goes by
