Karen's plant dyeing thread skein / moss green / cotton / for weaving, garland, tassel, wrapping, etc. / DIY

A cotton thread skein dyed with plant dyes by a Thai Karen woman. I dyed it in moss green using a tree called Vitex pinnata (Tinnock in Thai). The natural and warm taste is attractive. Weaving, of course, wall decorations such as garland, tassel, wrapping, etc., please feel free to use it. The last image is a sample thread thickness. From the left, they are arranged in the order of "generated, moss green, dark Brown, indigo gray, light Brown". <Size> About 70-85g (0.15-0.18lb) <Material> Cotton (plant dyeing) * The thread may be broken or there may be a knot on the way. * When using for weaving warp threads, glue them before use. When used for weft threads, it can be used without gluing. * When using for embroidery, the thread is easily broken, so divide it into short lengths before use. ======================================= "Chiku Chiku Tong Tong" is working to inherit the traditional culture of the Karen people. It takes more than a few weeks from dyeing threads to finishing sewing etc. to make one item. Please use it for a long time while enjoying the color of plant dyeing that changes over time and the texture unique to hand-woven. * Please check the "size" and "material" of the work before purchasing. * Depending on your PC environment, the color of the product image may differ from the actual product. ======================================= [Before purchasing, please be sure to check the following] ・ About shipping.

[Care for plant dyed products and hand-woven products] Plant dyed products are less resistant to washing and sunlight than chemical dyes, and their color changes as they are used. Please note the following points when cleaning and using. Color transfer or discoloration may occur due to rubbing or wetting. Be careful of color transfer when wearing or using light-colored clothing or bags. If you use dark clothes and bags together, even if there is color transfer, it will not be noticeable. Especially dark colors are easy to fade, so we recommend that you wash them once before wearing. Also, when washing, we recommend hand-washing separately from other clothes. If you use a washing machine, use a neutral detergent, put it in the net, separate it from other clothes, and wash it in a gentle stream. Avoid using a dryer and dry in the shade. ・ About gluing. In the case of cloth products, threads glued with rice may be used, but once washed, the glue will come off. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us!
