"Episode 36: About" Strength "

We introduce the dyeing club, the 36th story about "the strength of the dough".
The strength is determined by various factors such as the thickness of the yarn, the method of twisting, the density, etc.



Handkerchief (text)

Since the density of the yarn and weft is low, using the single yarn sweet twisted yarn, the strength is not high compared to the fabric of the same general thickness.
On the other hand, the fabric is extremely soft and feels good against the skin, so we use it in many of the clothes we sell at Warabegi Kid's Section.



Handkerchief (Tokuoka) The thread used is the same as that used for Handkerchief (bun), a single loosely twisted thread.
Due to the density of the warp and weft threads, it is slightly stronger than (bun), but not as strong as a regular fabric of the same thickness. It is said to be a higher-grade fabric among Handkerchief, and some people use it for Yukata.



Asso Hemp is the strongest of natural materials and has the property of further increasing its strength when wetted with water.
Because it is strong against repeated laundry, it is often used for bedding etc. where cleanliness is required. It can be said that the strength is high.



21 Count Plain Weave It is the same fabric used for wrapping cloth selling in cloth bag.
Although it is made of single thread, the thread is twisted tighter and denser than that of Handkerchief, making it relatively strong.
Clothing is often used for shirts and the like.



Muslin Wool It is a fabric with such a luster and drape that it is hard to believe it is 100% wool, and it was once used as a substitute for silk for undergarments and Kimono. Because it has good color development and colors and patterns stand out, SOU・SOU mainly uses it for Kikoromo and Kei-i wear.
The warp-weft both Combed Yarn in plain weave fabric using a single thread of weak strength in friction is not high, but there is no particular problem to be used as everyday wear.
* Combed Yarn wool is one made by aligning long wool and removing short wool, and spinning.



Canvas Canvas is a thick plain weave fabric made by twisting thick threads into dense warp and weft threads.
It is a fabric that was thought to be used for a sail of a sailboat, so it is thick and durable.
Canvas has a number, and the lower the number, the thicker it becomes.
Canvas that Someori handles is No. 8.

Although it is strong, it is relatively easy to handle, so it is used for Bean Bag Chair, cushions, bags, and chair seats.
Even thin sheer fabrics can increase the density by increasing the density of the yarn, or conversely if even the thick fabric weaves the weave of the weave is weak, the strength of the fabric is low and so on.
