K-006 - 6 oz - indigo/colorful Kasuri
from Kasuri-Orimoto, Japan
1 × 50 cm = 50 cm Gesamtlänge
This lightweight kasuri fabric features a high-contrast, irregular pattern with an indigo base and playfully colorful weft threads. The pattern, whose striped character is strongly emphasized along the length, appears lively yet light—a typical feature of traditional kasuri textiles.
Its uniqueness lies in its production: In the kasuri technique (a Japanese ikat weaving method), individual warp or weft yarns are tied and dyed in sections before weaving. The motif only comes together during the subsequent weaving process. Slight shifts in the pre-dyed yarn sections create the characteristic, slightly blurred contours. This deliberate play with blurriness gives the fabric depth, movement, and a handcrafted aesthetic.
Thanks to its light weight, the fabric is ideal as a lining for jackets or coats, as a decorative fabric for cushions or light curtains, and for complete shirts, blouses, or dresses. It combines traditional weaving artistry with versatile applications and a calm, natural expression.

Please do not wash the denim before processing. As unwashed "raw selvage," the fabric only develops its characteristic structure and fit through wear.
Wash the finished garment only after complete assembly. The respective length and width shrinkage values should therefore be taken into account during pattern making and sizing planning.
