[3rd new MONPE] MONPE circle, triangle, square

A pop pattern of large and small "◯△□"

The classic Kurume Kasuri MONPE now comes in a new design, "Circle, Triangle, Square," featuring three shapes scattered throughout!

Kurume kasuri patterns and designs are not printed on top of the finished fabric, but are created by pre-dyeing the yarn before it is woven.
This technique involves tying threads, dyeing them, untying them, and then creating a pattern in the dyed parts, resulting in a unique, faded design.

Kurume Kasuri, produced in the Chikugo region in the south of Fukuoka Prefecture, is made using old-fashioned shuttle looms and is woven slowly, allowing air to escape, resulting in a soft texture that is one of its characteristics.
The more you use it, the more it will fit your body. It is breathable, absorbent, and dries quickly, making it especially useful in the summer.
The thickness of the fabric is basic.


Six designs in one pattern
Yokoikat pattern expression

The patterns in "Maru Sankaku Shikaku" are created using the "yoko kasuri" technique, in which the weft threads are dyed separately at the knots to create patterns.
Six shapes are combined so that all the patterns fit onto one MONPE.
The warp threads have thin stripes, giving the fabric a range of shades of color.
Combined with the wavy pattern, it gives a pop but not too flashy impression, with depth.
