This item is a downloadable PDF sewing pattern for making a children’s jinbei using the fabric of your choice.
The jinbei is a lightweight and comfortable Japanese summer outfit, often worn at home or during summer matsuri, traditional Japanese festivals. We recommend using cotton fabric to make it.
