Orange/Yellow/Raisin Yarn-Dyed Stripe Vintage Kimono Silk Tsumugi from Japan By the Yard #108

Thin, strong, mid-weight Tsumugi silk is crisp; reminiscent of a lightweight canvas, but thinner, and sooo much softer.  It's so obviously silk once you feel it. Yarn-dyed, probably hand woven stripe with pure bright orange, and stripes in yellow and muted brownish purple. The stripes run lengthwise through the bolt. It has a textured, flannelly soft, slightly slubby surface, and body. No drape or shine. Both sides are the same. The colors are consistent and strong even if the photo shows grayish or faded areas.  (The camera is sometimes confused by the texture).  14" wide and sold by the full yard, yours will be cut in a continuous piece from the excellent condition, never used, carefully stored bolt. Label states Tsumugi. 100% Silk.  Japan.
