≪Shibori-zome≫ Because each individual thread is dyed, it becomes softer and develops a unique character with use.
The technique used to dye [Wafuuka] hand towels is Shibori-zome, a traditional Japanese method born in Japan.
Shibori-zome creates beautiful patterns by pouring dye onto plain fabric.
Because each thread is dyed, unlike printing where pigment is applied to the surface of the fabric, it does not compromise the fabric’s breathability or elasticity.
This results in the unique feel of a hand towel – highly absorbent and quick-drying, becoming softer with each use.
Furthermore, hand towels dyed with Shibori-zome have a unique texture, with subtle color bleeding and delicate, gentle blurring, characteristics of handcraftsmanship.
With each use, a small amount of dye will fall from the threads, creating a depth of character.
The joy of nurturing a hand towel is one of the pleasures of Shibori-zome.
