A day of Master(Methods in production)

<Thinking about color development with Kasuri>

Kurume Kasuri is a basic weave that is mostly called plain weave. The feature is that the difference in color between the front and back of the fabric and the expression of the pattern are structurally the same. In addition, since the basic form is that the vertical and horizontal densities are the same, we are always thinking about what kind of expression to make by mixing the warp and weft, based on our experience and data, and always expressing new colors. I am challenging.

The basic method is to use the warp threads (tateto) as a navy blue or black base and use the weft threads to develop the colors. There are merits such as deep color, insistence of Kasuri pattern, and efficient production.

The warp is woven in units of 12tan. The weft is dyed plain. I can prepare 6 colors and make 6 colors of 2tan. I can also make 12tan in the same color if I get an order. The idea is that I can make a sample first and then make it more productive in the next lot.
