| Best for | Finding a Magic Machine clothing-repair location in Japan and checking the store details and published reference prices before visiting | Checking which U.S. alias the current Craft Yarn Council table gives a known metric package size before confirming project gauge |
| Know before using | This is one commercial chain's Japanese-language locator, not a census of Japanese repair services or an independent assessment of any location. The locator does not list Fukui among its prefecture routes, store distribution is uneven, and services, hours, reference prices, item acceptance, and available amenities can differ by location. Published prices are starting references and can change with the garment, material, construction, condition, and requested work. Confirm the exact item, result, estimate, turnaround, accessibility, custody, added-work approval, warranty, and outcome with the selected store before handing anything over. | The reference is not a dimensional measurement, manufacturer inspection, UK or Canadian conversion, steel-hook chart, tool recommendation, yarn assignment, gauge result, or proof that a proposed tool will produce the required fabric. |

| What the source establishes | The first-party locator exposes current location, prefecture, municipality, keyword, clothing-repair, service, amenity, and payment filters. Prefecture pages publish a current store total and city controls, while store pages provide addresses, telephone numbers, hours, route links, maps, and available amenities. The connected service and reference-price pages cover pants and denim, skirts and dresses, jackets and coats, shirts and T-shirts, knitwear, alterations, remaking, tears, zipper replacement, frayed hems, buttons, lining work, knit holes, unraveling, and snags. | The lookup reproduces the current public Craft Yarn Council metric and U.S. alias rows and follows the Council's warning that company letter and number labels vary; blank aliases remain blank instead of being inferred. |
