Edit: There was an error on the math of the expanded sizes….so, the pattern has been updated again as of 16 July, 2008. Sorry for the confusion!
The Simple Kimono Wrap (version 2) is officially updated.
The pattern now includes:
- Expanded sizing up to a Youth 8.
- Measurements in cm as well as inches.
- Added photos & notes of various kimonos, emphasizing the neck area.
- An entire page devoted to the binding.
I hope this makes it easier for everyone. As always, let me know if you have any difficulty with the pattern. Please add your photos to the Simple Kimono Wrap Flickr group.

Thank you so much for posting the larger sizes! I have made 6 kimonos so far! I am addicted and they are getting rave reviews with my family! My son (who is 3) has been begging for a train kimono – so with the larger sizes now – that is tonight’s project! I think the ‘Sara(h)s’ in this group like the kimono – three of us in a row!

Thank you for the new tutorial. I made one in for my 3 year old by guessing the dimensions and it turned out OK but now I have proper measurements I can try again! Thank you..

it’s great that you put the time into perfecting this tutorial. i thought it was very user friendly and easy to understand. like i said before, it is so much better than the martha stewart kimono pattern. Here’s the link for her pattern: i’ve already made your kimono and have posted it to the group (mine is the orange one). Thanks again!
