Roots shawl square

Woven entirely from cotton using the region's signature saki-zome method — dyeing the yarn before it's woven — a technique that traces back to the late 1700s in Nishiwaki City, Hyogo. The yarn is woven in varying shades, so the rounded, three-dimensional cut brings out the texture of the fabric, and the striped paneling shifts naturally as you move. Despite the sturdy weave, it stays light to wear, so it works across seasons. Because each piece is dyed and woven by hand in small batches, no two pairs are ever exactly alike.

Each piece is unique and have different colors, so please contact us if you want some pictures of available colours.
