Warp: Kataha-warikomi… Black and white are alternated.
Weft: Purple and white shippo pattern
In Japan, it is said in May that you can see the beauty of purple in nature.
Kakitsubata and irises are lit by the light of the early summer sun and bloom in a beautiful purple color.
To obtain a purple dye from the natural world, it has been dyed with purple grass roots (purple roots) or from the sea with shell purple dye. Also, since ancient times, it has been used as the highest color in the royal family and the royal family regardless of the East or the West, and the impression of “noble color” is strong.
Shimogawa Orimono uses purple dyed with chemical dyes for commercial reasons, but uses purple in the color scheme while learning about history and thinking about the changing seasons.
