"Kase-zome" (Skein Dyeing) is a dyeing method that applies the use of indigo and has been practiced in Japan for many years from a long while ago. For this dyeing method the yarn is bundled into a loop form, then soaked in indigo and squeezed to wring out excess dye, followed by exposure to air in order to allow for oxidation, these steps are repeated until the desired color is achieved. With this method the dye is able to penetrate the core of the thread, which creates a deep indigo color that still maintains the original texture of the threads.

When you take this thin thread and create fabrics that are densely woven, it can create beautiful patterns and textures, however on the other hand it is true that it can be very difficult to handle.
