Kaizawa Yukiko on 50 years of weaving Ainu 'attus' fabric

Kaizawa Yukiko has more than 60 years' experience in weaving 'attus', a kind of fabric made from tree bark fibre. She dyes the 'attus', which is made from elm, with flowers and plants that grow locally like marigolds, madder and walnuts. She sometimes works more than 12 hours a day but says, "it's no hardship because I love weaving". The more she weaves, the more she wants to create good items, and she says her work is a "life-long study". Kaizawa has won many awards, including recognition as "an excellent craftswoman" by The Ainu Association of Hokkaido in 2011. More recently in November 2023 she was awarded The Order of the Sacred Treasure by the Japanese government.
