Thank you for your understanding. Note: Because it is hand-dyed, all colors are different. Please be aware that it is not possible to add thread of the exact same color later. Hand-dyeing (indigo dyeing, persimmon tannin dyeing, plant dyeing) results in different colors depending on the season, time, weather, dyeing materials, dyer, and mordant. Also, it is vulnerable to friction and chemicals such as bleach. We recommend hand washing or net washing with a neutral detergent. Please read the following only if applicable. ☆Indigo Dyeing Since it has just been dyed, the water may turn blue for the first one or two washes. This is because the excess indigo on the surface has come off, and it is different from fading that has set into the thread or fabric. Also, there is no need to worry about color transfer to other items, but it is safer to wash it with water before use. ☆Plant Dyeing My plant dyeing mainly uses a primitive method of collecting plants and repeatedly boiling and dyeing them, but for plants that are not available in Japan, such as redwood and redwoods, I use concentrated liquid. The colors will likely vary each time. Plant debris and fibers may be attached, but please understand that they are harmless. ☆Persimmon Tannin Dyeing Persimmon tannin dyeing develops color through exposure to sunlight and wind during the drying process. We repeatedly dye by kneading the dye solution and sun-drying it once a day. Due to its characteristics, the finish has a crisp, heavily starched feel. × Iron utilizes the blackening properties when it comes into contact with iron, creating a tannin effect. In addition, heat is applied, so the crispness is slightly softened. The color also gradually develops, and we hope you will enjoy the process of it becoming darker.
