SASHIKO KOINOBORI KIT originally designed by SASHIKO.LAB.
Instant downloadable pattern is available, too!

—————————————————

I designed this SASHIKO KOINOBORI when my son was three years old. In Japan, we have a tradition to hang up the carp streamers called “ Koinobori” on children’s day of May 5th. Parents display them wishing for kids’ healthy growth. We also use Koinobori as seasonal decorations.

This pattern is easy to follow as long as you have some basic sewing skills. The pattern is already printed with the washable ink, so all you have to do is to follow the lines with sashiko stitches. It may take some time to finish though, I hope that you’ll enjoy the process of stitching and spend a relaxing time while making your own Koinobori.
