●●● Dyeing for Everyday Life ●●●
We aim to create works that add a special touch to daily life.
We hope that encountering Yotsume's dyed fabrics will be a refreshing experience and brighten your daily life, even just a little.
Using dyeing techniques such as Katazome (stencil dyeing) and Tsutsugaki (freehand paste resist dyeing),
most processes are done by hand.
Fabrics dyed by hand possess a unique "ambiguity" that cannot be achieved by machines.
The outlines of lines may be blurred, or the print slightly misaligned.
While these are unintended elements,
this "ambiguity" is somehow interesting and conveys the warmth of human hands.
We aim to create such fabrics.

【Kaya (Mosquito Netting)】
---Kaya is the name of a loosely woven fabric. It was originally used as an insect repellent cloth, hence the character for "mosquito" (蚊) is included.
BAN INOUE's commitment is to 100% cotton, vibrantly colored kaya.
【Characteristics of Kaya fabric】
---Kaya was originally hung as a mosquito repellent when sleeping.
It is a coarse-weave, well-ventilated fabric.
It is woven with wide spaces between threads to allow air to pass through, making it very light and flexible.
However, as a woven fabric, it has no elasticity.
【The Appeal of Kaya Fabric】
---When the "sizing" used during weaving washes off, the individual fibers of each thread spread out, bringing out the inherent softness of cotton.
Also, as the fine fibers intertwine, it becomes even more skin-friendly, transforming into a soft, light, and airy material.
It can be safely used by those with sensitive skin and children.
Absorbent, Quick-Drying, Breathable
Kaya is excellent in absorbency, quick-drying properties, and breathability. Therefore, it quickly absorbs moisture, dries fast, and is hygienic as it is less prone to unpleasant odors.

CAYA Kitchen Cloth
A kitchen cloth made from Nara's kaya (mosquito net) fabric
Made from 8 layers of 100% cotton kaya fabric, it's thick, easy to wipe with, and has excellent absorbency and feel. Despite being thick and easy to wipe with, it dries quickly, thanks to the coarse weave characteristic of kaya fabric.
Easy to use, durable, and long-lasting. The secret lies in the continuous stitching.
This kitchen cloth is made of 8 layers of thin, crepe-like kaya woven fabric. It absorbs moisture between the layers, giving it excellent absorbency and quick-drying properties.
The stitching, which securely holds the 8 layers together to prevent shifting, is carefully applied without cutting the thread mid-way, making it resistant to fraying.
Each piece features a distinctive "L-shaped" stitch, created with handmade machine work.
New kitchen cloths are stiff due to starch sizing. With each wash and use, they transform into a soft and gentle texture.
A reliable color that you can use without worrying about oil stains. Many fans appreciate that dark-colored kitchen cloths are hard to find elsewhere.
For those who want to be particular not only about function but also appearance, especially for something used daily.
