Bright Seater by Okamoto Junko
I went to Kyoto the other day
Participated in a Japanese friend's exhibition at Kyoto University of the Arts
Warm and sunny weather
Cool temperature
Heralding the arrival of spring
Kyoto University of the Arts in Rakukita
The whole street has a Kyoto flavor but no typical Kyoto atmosphere
The entire spectacular staircase is directly from the entrance of the school
Climb up step by step
You will be greeted by a tall hall with a corridor feeling
It's as if you look at it from the viewfinder of an old camera... it's quiet
Kyoto's Old Town and University of Arts
The atmosphere and Bright Sweater are so well matched
Can't help but take a lot of photos of physical incoordination

Xolla wool, which has a high similarity to the original Moeke line of Bright Sweater, is a skinless, rough, original fluffy pure wool wire, different from the previous commercial sheep species (Merino, alpaca, etc.), from a few breeds limited by the region, is Xolla Wool founder Elena's care for the livestock industry in his hometown and his love and expectation for weaving and yarn.
The production of small batches and the characteristics of not being skin-friendly, it must be honestly said that this is not a wire that the public will generally like and accept
But just like Maxima needs to meet Bole, probably only a designer like Moeke meets Junkoさん who loves different wires can create a series of classic works with Moeke as the protagonist!
Xolla wool, spun from woolen-spun, is tough and elastic when weaved, and after washing off lanolin in water, it will become softer (but not skin-friendly), and the fibers will completely expand to fill the gaps of the needle, but the twist and rib texture is still three-dimensional and full.
The Fum white smoke used is a gray and gray undyed color, and the afternoon light and shadow, scattered on the Bright Sweater, is simple but beautiful.
