Title Black Kasuri

Inspired by tradition. Designed for use in your everyday life.

Bring heritage craftsmanship to life with this curated supply pack, designed to help you create a Japanese-style drawstring pouch known as a komebukuro. Once used to carry offerings of rice, these pouches now carry practical things—like craft projects, lunch, or gifts—with character and beauty.

This version features a striking black wool kasuri, a vintage Japanese fabric traditionally woven using a resist-dye technique similar to ikat. The blurred patterns are created by binding sections of the yarn before dyeing, so the design emerges in the weaving itself—not printed on the surface. The result is a dynamic, slightly unpredictable pattern that reveals the maker’s hand and celebrates imperfection.

Paired with textured cotton and linen, this bundle provides everything you need to make a functional pouch with soul.

Use your traditional komebukuro (rice pouch) for:

  • A craft project bag that fits a small-ish sweater or embroidery project with an 8" hoop
  • A modern handbag with heritage flair
  • A thoughtful gift bag

What’s included:

  • Exterior Fabric (Feature): 10" x 14" vintage wool kasuri (deadstock, Japan)

  • Exterior Fabric (Complementary): 16" x 21" cotton/linen
