Meet Yoshimi, a young Japanese designer who has a passion for creating small goods from 100% cotton. Yoshimi sells his crafted goods mostly in Asakusa, Shibuya and Shinjuku. However, he is based in Asakusa on Saturday and Sunday (in the Hanakawado area). His creations bring a smile to the young and and old alike. His work is magnificent. Yoshimi crafts characters such as Super Mario and the Smurfs all by hand with coloured thread. Visit Asakusa and see his work over the weekend.
