Harikuyo

Harikuyo is a memorial service held in shrines and temples in Japan for the broken sewing needles of the past year.

I think that might be one of the most intriguing traditions I’ve ever heard, and since the day I first read about it I’ve been fascinated. So that’s what this blog will be….a memorial of broken sewing needles, ideas that have not yet come to fruition, plans that have been torn down, questions in process and thoughts that need to be written down in order to start to figure them out.
