I made it off Simplicity pattern #4080, though I *did* make the body longer, since the pattern didn't really allow for the fold-up bit... But it's not that hard really, provided you've got the space, time, a sewing machine, and follow the instructions. The sleeves were a bit confusing at first, but I only had to unpick and re-do once.
I'm rather chuffed with it. I've made the geta and the tabi socks now too! hehe! Just the under-shirt to go...
I wonder if I could find a matching fan or umbrella? Still not sure how it will look with any of my wigs either... my only black wig is a Sasuke-ish wig. Not kimono-type really...
Thank you! I'm still so excited about my kimono, so happy... My kimono has now infiltrated my happy-place and whenever I'm reminded of my kimono I go "kyaa!" and forget about all the troubles that exist in the world for a moment.
Suddenly I'm worried. Clothes should not do that... right? XD
