Under such circumstances, I asked for production because I wanted to preserve the technology of high-quality Japan blankets as much as possible. The woven blankets made in Izumiotsu City are finished by skilled craftsmen with their experienced skills in all processes, from making molds for the design required for jacquard weaving called crest paper, to weaving, washing, brushing, and finishing. When you pick it up, you can feel the goodness of handiwork, carefully made one by one from the plump fabric and fluffy touch. ●About the design The person who asked us to design it was Mr. Katsuji Wakisaka, who also designed the rug for Undydo Plus. The design of Mr. Wakisaka, who was active as a designer at Marimekko, is honest and warm in a sophisticated way that makes you feel Scandinavian. It was created with two types of designs, "Mosaic Street" and "Hanatsunagi". Biography of Katsuji Wakiwakisaka Born in Kyoto in 1944. In 1968, he moved to Finland. After working at MARIMEKKO, JACK LENOR LARSEN in New York, and Wacoal Interior Fabrics, he has been creating works in a wide range of expressions such as ceramics, paintings, fabrics, and picture books. Currently, he is focusing on the work of SOU-SOU. ● About the material It is made of undyed wool. Undyed+ is a brand that was born because of the goodness of dye-free. The soft colors nurtured by nature have a beauty that cannot be artificially produced and a charm that somehow calms the mind. This jacquard blanket was also made with no dyeing, which is the origin of undyed+. Wool blankets not only retain heat, but are also excellent at releasing moisture. Even in the cold winter, people sweat a lot, but it has the effect of dissipating moisture, so it is warm but not stuffy. It feels good on the skin, and the texture of high-quality wool is a comfort that makes you want to touch it forever. In addition, since it is carefully woven with jacquard weave instead of a print, it can be used for a long time without fading or fading. Product information, care, washing, and storage 100% undyed wool Size 100×150cm Design: Katsuji Wakisaka Daily care If you are concerned about pilling, cut it with scissors. If you brush along the coat, the dust will be removed and the texture will be smooth. How to wash Dry cleaning is recommended, but if you wash your clothes by hand at home, put a small amount of wool detergent in water, press and wash lightly so that it does not rub alone, shape it, and dry it in the shade. If you use too much detergent, it will remove too much oil and spoil the softness. How to store Dry cleaning is recommended before long-term storage, such as seasonal changes. Be sure to repel insects when storing.
