Homma and Furukawa's dyeing club /
"Thirty-fifth story: About" shrinking rate "
I will introduce about "Shaokutsu (Shrinking Ryuu)" of the dyeing club, the 35th story.
"Shrinkage" refers to the rate at which the fabric shrinks when the fabric is laundered.
This time we will introduce the shrinkage ratio of the fabrics handled by SOU・SOU dyeing.

Up and Down did you think?
The shrinkage rate of the fabric will vary depending on the material and Weave method.
Although the fabric containing natural fibers introduced above has the property of shrinking by sucking moisture,
Synthetic fibers such as Polyester have the characteristic that they do not absorb moisture and do not shrink easily.
It can be said that "shrinking" is a proof that the fabric is alive.
It would be greatly appreciated if you wash your favorite clothes and if you could make it yourself as well.
