The fabric used is Isemomen Cotton Handkerchief, a traditional craft from Tsu City, Mie Prefecture, and is dyed with Kyoto Stencil Yuzen Dyeing. It is sewn taking advantage of the width of handkerchief. As the finished cloth is washed, the starch falls off and the threads return to a cotton-like state, making the fabric softer. This texture is what makes Isemomen Cotton so appealing.
