My grandmother sews each stitch by hand. Please experience the wonderfulness of hand-sewing. This cat-themed hanten (a type of Japanese padded winter coat) is designed to be worn between your clothes. It's so light and streamlined that you won't even notice you're wearing it. ☆ The size can be freely adjusted with the ties, from petite to plus size. ☆ It would make a great gift. ☆ Outer fabric: Wool ☆ Lining: Cotton ☆ When you get warm, untie the ties and simply pull it off to remove the hanten without taking off your outer layer. ☆ It will be compressed for shipping, but will return to its original shape. Since it doesn't touch the skin directly, it's not washed often, but the smell is removed with the steam from the bath. Hang it up overnight. The smell will disappear, and the hanten will become fluffy again.
