| 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. | An account is required and community, publisher, designer, shop, yarn, and project records can vary in currency and accuracy. Search results, ratings, favorites, and project examples do not establish pattern accuracy, yarn availability, seller reliability, fit, gauge, or project suitability. Confirm current files, errata, license, purchase and refund terms, measurements, yarn details, and shop information with the responsible source. |

| 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. | Ravelry's official description identifies a user-driven database of knitting and crochet patterns and yarns, searchable directories for designers, pattern sources, local yarn stores and yarn brands, and a personal notebook for projects, stash, tools, library items, queues, and favorites. Community members and volunteer editors add and maintain the database records. |
