How to attach a shibori stand

How to attach a shibori hook to the shibori stand

Imported from Arimatsu, Japan, famous for its shibori traditions dating back to the Edo period, this kit includes a full set of artisan tools for creating miura (looped binding) shibori patterns.

Shibori Hook - Miura

Made in Japan from rust-resistant stainless steel, these angled hooks are a modern version of those used by shibori artisans in Arimatsu. Use these shibori hooks to create miura (looped binding) shibori patterns.

Approximately 21cm (8.25in) long.

Shibori Bobbin - Kanoko

Hand-lathed and imported from Japan, these wooden bobbins are designed for creating kanoko (dots) shibori patterns.

Approximately 7 x 2.5cm (2.75 x 1in) outer dimensions; 5 x 1cm (2 x .5in) core.

Cotton Shibori Thread - Binding

Imported from Japan, this 100% cotton thread is the same kind used by professional shibori artisans in Arimatsu. It has a soft twist which allows for some give when wrapping fabric, resulting in a cleaner, tighter pattern. Use for all types of bound patterns including te-kumo (spiderweb), makiage (crisscross binding), bōshi (capped), and tesuji (hand-pleated).

Shibori Stand

Designed by Arimatsu artisan Mr. Hiroshi Murase for modern shibori practice, these stainless steel shibori stands conveniently clamp to a work surface. Use to create te-kumo (spiderweb), maki-age (crisscross binding), bōshi (capped), or miura (looped binding) shibori patterns from the comfort of a chair.

Approximately 19 x 13 x 3cm (7.5 x 5 x 1.25in); 220g.
