I hand-dyed new sashiko thread 20/4. This is the final batch for this season. We still have 20/8 in various colors, so we hope you'll take a look. Approximately 360 meters x 2 skeins ☆ Marigold flower dye x indigo gradation dye = 1600 yen ☆ Mint gradation dye = 1400 yen 1600 + 1400 = 3000 yen 3000 yen → 2950 yen (bundle price) We also sell individual skeins, but for single items only, we add ¥150 to the unit price. Thank you for your understanding. Note: Because they are 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, the dyer, and the mordant. Also, they are sensitive 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 Dye Since it's freshly dyed, the water may turn blue for the first 1-2 washes. This is due to the excess indigo on the surface washing off (it's different from fading that occurs after the dye has set in the thread or fabric). There's no need to worry about color transfer to other items, but washing it before use will give you more peace of mind. ☆ Plant Dye My plant dyeing primarily 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 brazilwood, I use concentrated liquid. The colors often vary each time. Plant debris and fibers may be attached, but they are harmless, so please understand. ☆ Persimmon Tannin Dye 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, starched-like feel. × Iron utilizes the blackening property when it comes into contact with iron, creating a tannin effect. Plus, heat is applied, so the crispness is slightly softened. The color also gradually develops, and we hope you enjoy the process of it becoming darker.
