[About Kurume Kasuri]A retro belt-driven power loom system from the Showa era, where 20 looms operate from a single motor.This Kurume Kasuri weaving workshop was founded in 1948.It is one of Japan's representative traditional yarn-dyed textiles.It features a soft texture similar to handwoven fabric.With over 30 mostly manual processes, each piece of fabric takes 2-4 months to complete.All woven bolts are hot-water washed and naturally dried, shrinking about 10 percent as part of the finishing process.This textile is ideal for those who want to create a carefully crafted item using traditional Japanese weaving techniques.[Weaving Characteristics]A fine 60/2 yarn is used for the warp. Combined with coordinated warp and weft colors, the chambray effect gives the solid fabric a subtle luster.In the two-ply yarn series, the unique method of winding the weft creates an original and distinctive woven texture.The addition of dark brown in the warp enhances the depth of color.[Specifications]Warp yarn: 60/2Weft yarn: 60/2 + 16/1 SlubFabric thickness: Slightly thin + FirmDyeing: 100 percent chemical dyeCotton 100 percentWidth: Approx. 38 cmFinish: Hot-water washed and sun-dried (shrinks about 10 percent and can be cut and sewn immediately)Color: Nasu Navy, 60/2 Purple 1367, 16/1 Deep Navy Show more
