Sashiko fabric, beloved worldwide, is celebrated for its rich tradition and unique charm.

Sashiko fabric is a durable, thick material with a distinct textured surface, created by weaving cotton threads alternately. Its origins trace back centuries to hand-stitched reinforcements for clothing.
Originally, sashiko stitching not only added strength but also served as a decorative expression of prayers for bountiful harvests and prosperity.
