We wanted to share this video produced by Kamawanu about the making of their tenugui cloths. Since their inception in 1987, the company has been practicing the art of chusen dyeing, a dyeing process that allows for delicate patterns to be replicated with vivid texture and color on both sides of the cloth. The labour-intensive process is depicted beautifully in this video, revealing the surprising amount of steps that go into each hand-dyed cloth.
The Kamawanu tenugui collection can be viewed here.
