What is the "autumn wind"?

Good evening, everyone.
It is gradually getting colder and you can feel the autumn wind.
As I wrote on Instagram, today I would like to talk about the naming of autumn winds.

What do you think of when you hear the word autumn wind?
'The winds that blow in autumn, right?'
Yes, that's right.

But there is another meaning.
In Japanese, it is written 'AkiKaze'.
Aki has many meanings.
It is a combination of the Japanese words 'Aki' (autumn) and 'Aki' (boredom) and indicates that the relationship with the lover is cooling down.
So the story also has a hint of that.
Please read it again.

When deciding on a name for the yarn, we look up the meanings of the candidate names.
For this yarn, there were several candidates, but I chose it without hesitation when I found out the other meaning.
Today I am still struggling with naming it, thinking that there are still many things I don't know about it.
