Rienzome Plain White Tenugui to Dye Yourself
Description
This cloth is for those who want to make their own tenugui towel. It has been bleached in perfect white, so that it will easily show colors and gradations, and is cut to the typical Tenugui width of 36cm.
"Tenugui" is often translated as "Japanese towel", but this translation fails to cover their versatility and cultural significance. Tenugui are not only used as hand towels and handkerchiefs, but also function as fashion items, gift wrapping, souvenirs, sweat bands and padding (e.g. in the martial arts kendo), and of course as decorative items due to their often beautiful, funny or nostalgic patterns.
Please be aware that tenugui cloth by default never are hemmed, which allows them to dry very quickly.
