Cotton thread dyed using local plants by Karen women living in Thailand.
The natural and warm texture created by natural materials and handwork is attractive.
The fluctuating colors are expressive and deep, and you'll want to look at it forever.
It's already rolled up into a ball, so it's convenient and ready to use.
In addition to embroidery, sashiko, weaving, and knitting, it is also very cute when used for wall decorations such as garlands, making tassels, and wrapping.
I would be happy if you could use it freely◎

*About the product.
We handcraft our products using natural materials. Therefore, the weave, seams, color, pattern, etc., are not uniform unlike ready-made products.
In addition, the dyeing, weaving, embroidery, and sewing techniques of the Karen people are traditional techniques that have been passed down as household handicrafts that are rooted in daily life. This is different from professional techniques.
We strive to be accurate, but unlike ready-made products or products made by professionals, there are some imperfections. We hope that you understand this before purchasing, considering it to be a taste of handicraft that is passed down from mother to child.

[About the care of vegetable-dyed products and hand-woven products]
Vegetable-dyed products are less resistant to washing and sunlight than chemical dyes, and their color will change as they are used. Please pay attention to the following points when cleaning and using the product.
Color transfer or fading may occur due to friction or wetness. When wearing or using light-colored clothing or bags, be careful of color transfer. If you use the product with dark colored clothing or bags, any color transfer will be less noticeable. Dark colors in particular are prone to fading, so we recommend washing them once before wearing them.
We also recommend that you wash your clothes by hand separately from other clothes. If using a washing machine, use a neutral detergent, place it in a laundry net, and wash it separately from other clothes on a gentle cycle. Avoid using a dryer and dry in the shade.
・About gluing.
For cloth products, threads glued with rice may be used, but the glue will come off once washed.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us!
