Hopefully you aren't fed up with the multitude of kawaii links out there, because I've discovered some new gems I'd like to share... as Karen calls it, a bit of eye candy...
Quite possibly some of the cutest dolls I've ever seen from hakkadrops:
Not to mention great illustration and other goods from Kita Usagi:
Some adorable sewn & embroidered bags and pouches here, along with some cute Anano-style bears here (this whole site is worth exploring...).
And, of course, you can never have too many amigurumi. Here are some from Momo:
I think I'm going to stop there, because I'm just getting more and more frustrated that I can't get my hands on this stuff!








Those links are great! The Hakkadrops one is my favorite. Hope you don't mind I nabbed it for my links page. :)

Great links! I'm totally lovin' Hakka Drops and Kita Usagi. I wonder if any of these Japanese crafters and artists are aware of how obsessed we non-Japanese are over their stuff?

great links! those hakkadrops are super cute. so if you can't get your hands on it you have to make it yourself... I bet you could make a cute amigurumi with those crochet skills of yours!
