I love finding two great indigo dyed woven kasuri fabrics and pairing them togethercto make unique and wonderful pieces.

This scarf has been made by attaching a beautiful piece of vintage woven spot kasuri fabric to another piece of Kasuri with a diagonal line and spots in between. Both pieces come from deconstructed cotton kimono I have discovered in the second hand shops in Tokyo,.

The Kasuri weaving of the original fabrics is technically complex and highly skilled process as the patterns are pre-determined in advance and the skeins of threads are space dyed for both warp and weft. The threads would have been dipped 30 times in Japanese indigo.

This is a beautiful, one of a kind scarf that would make a perfect gift for either a man or a woman.

There is a mend at one side of the diagonals kasuri, see picture.
