Scarf, indigo itajime shibori on chirimen kimono silk

Product Description

This scarf is cut from a length of soft chirimen kimono silk. After it is carefully folded almost as in making origami, it is clamped with two matching half moon woodblocks, and then immersed in the indigo vat. The clamped areas do not take up the dye. When the scarf is unfolded and  opened the half moon pattern is revealed.
