Sinossi

The best and most convenient guide to the Japanese embroidery style of sashiko and boro stitching you'll ever own, this handy pocket guide will help you fully understand these two timeless sewing techniques and how to perfectly execute them. While both are stitching techniques native to Japan, sashiko produces even white stiches on dark fabric that are often worked into repeating designs, and boro incorporates patches into garments which are hand-sewn in linear fashion. Featuring helpful overviews on the history of boro and sashiko stitching, also included are detailed sections on tools, marking tips, and a variety of simple designs. With two simple projects that contain easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions and coordinating photography, you'll fall in love with this unique stitching style!

    Setting off on a backpacking adventure requires careful planning to ensure a smooth journey and maximize the experience without overspending. First, defining a destination is essential, as this will shape your entire budget and itinerary. Research the cost of living, accommodation, and local transportation options for each location to get a clear picture of potential expenses. Some destinations are significantly more affordable than others, and being flexible with timing and locations can help you find the best deals. 
      
    Once you’ve chosen a destination, create a realistic budget that accounts for all expenses, including flights, lodging, food, excursions, and any emergency funds. To stick within budget, consider booking flights and accommodations in advance, as early bookings often offer the best rates. Use fare comparison websites, track fare fluctuations, and take advantage of promotions to secure low-cost flights. 
      
    Accommodation is another key part of planning. Backpackers often rely on budget-friendly options, such as hostels, guesthouses, or even homestays. For those looking to save even more, options like Couchsurfing or work-exchange programs can provide free lodging in exchange for volunteer hours. Research accommodation that fits your needs, and always read reviews to ensure safety and quality.

    There's no wrong way to be a woman. There are countless wrong ways to be a man. 
     
     
     
    James Breakwell should know. He's tried just about all of them. Journalism. Pig ownership. Felony lawn gnome theft. Whatever masculinity is supposed to be, this can't be it. But can you really fail at something no one can quite define? Apparently. 
     
     
     
    Now, in a series of funny, sharply observed, and occasionally poignant essays, everyone's favorite internet-famous father of four daughters lays down a lifetime of lessons in what it means to be a man. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll wonder what really happened to those creepy lawn gnomes on that deserted country road. (Spoiler alert: They're right behind you.) 
     
     
     
    If you ever wanted to know how to fail at altruism, dodge the priesthood, and stumble your way into unexpected wisdom, this book is for you. 
     
     
     
    How to Be a Man (Whatever that Means) presents a vision of manhood that looks very different from what you'll see on TV. And that's a good thing. Probably.
