[Shawl] Organic cotton / Indigo blue / Dark blue gradation

Soft to the touch

We indigo-dyed a fluffy gauze stole made from organic cotton. It is soft and incredibly comfortable, recommended even for those with sensitive skin. It offers a gentle, enveloping feel.

Indigo gradation

We dyed this when the indigo vat was a little less vigorous. This allows the dye to adhere beautifully even to the lighter areas. We hope you enjoy the beauty of the transition from deep indigo to light blue and white. It makes a great gift for both men and women.

■ Production Story

In Itoshiro, we grow indigo leaves, prepare the indigo dye, and dye throughout the summer.

During the indigo dyeing season, it feels as if we have more children. That's how much care and attention the indigo requires. Managing the indigo vats is a lot of work, but in return, they produce truly wonderful colors.

In the past, indigo-dyed clothing was worn during mountain work to repel vipers and insects, integrating into daily life as a "beauty of utility."

We want to continue this natural indigo dyeing in this region, eventually returning the indigo to the earth when it no longer produces dye.
