(About Tokamachi Kasuri) 　Tokamachi Tsumugi (a type of silk fabric) is also known as Tokamachi Kasuri, and its characteristic feature is the kasuri pattern made from "tate-kasuri" (warp ikat) and "yoko-kasuri" (weft ikat). Creating delicate kasuri patterns requires carefully completing complex processes. Even a slight difference in the way the threads are twisted can prevent the colors from appearing as intended in the design, resulting in an imperfect kasuri. The strength and thickness of the threads must be carefully matched, and the design's color scheme is dyed using the surikomi-nassen (stencil dyeing) method. Afterwards, the colored parts are bound with rubber or thread, and the ground color is dyed. After these precise processes are performed on both the warp and weft threads, the fabric is finally woven on a loom. During weaving, careful work is done to ensure that the kasuri pattern appears as designed.
