Hello, this is Haruno Tsuzaki, the editor-in-chief of marry* Do you know the shop called "Avril"? When you hear "AVRIL," you might think of that famous Canadian artist, but... this time, I'm introducing the super cute yarn specialty store called Avril♡
A store with 300 types of yarns♡
There are a total of three Avril stores in Japan: the Sanjo store in Kyoto, the Umeda store in Osaka, and the Kichijoji store in Tokyo* At each store, you can buy over 300 types and more than 1200 colors of yarn by weight, starting from 10 grams, and each of them is really, really cute♡
The recommended one is this fluffy yarn!
Avril has a wide variety of yarns, but the one I found particularly cute and recommend is this! This yarn is fluffy and dreamy, resembling a mohair type♡
The colorful hues and the fluffy, puffy appearance are absolutely cute and fairy-like!
Yarn isn't just thin and simple for sewing machines; there are also such cute wool yarns as well♡ I just love the puffy appearance*
[How to use it] How to use it??
Indeed, Avril's yarn is too cute. If you peek into the store, you might end up buying a lot because you'll be so mesmerized. But what exactly can you use it for?? Yarn is not something we usually encounter, but it can actually be used in such cute and convenient ways beyond just sewing or knitting scarves and sweaters!
Here are some delightful ways to use Avril's yarn for DIY wedding projects♩

The colorful and fluffy Avril wool yarn is so cute that it can be used as a substitute for ribbons to wrap gift bags♡
This is a wrapping method certified by professional handmade creators* Isn't it wonderfully whimsical?
