Cotton Furoshiki

Description

This furoshiki (Japanese wrapping cloth) is 100% cotton and hand dyed in indigo. I used a shibori (Japanese tie & resist) binding techinique, then immersed it in the indigo dye. It is 23 inches square and can be used for wrapping gifts, food or any household items to enhance your home. They are used in many different ways and are commonly used in the way tote bags are in this country. However, their uses are expanding.

Of course, it's not just about use, it's about what they express through how they are used. There's also expressing what you want to convey through color and pattern.

Care: I recommend treating them gently. Was in color water by hand and hang dry. Iron on a cotton setting.

Enjoy your own very unique furoshiki. Each one is unique.
