Nanbu Weaving

Aomori’s Traditional Handicrafts

Aomori’s Traditional Handicrafts
Aomori, Japan

Because there are no standard materials used in Nanbu Weaving, the appearance of the weaving can change during its making, and the finished product cannot be envisioned before the process is finished. However, by using cloth of the same color and material for the crosswise threads, and by changing the color with fixed pattern on the vertical, a design can be woven according to plan. Pictured is a pen case, book cover, business card holder, and pouch made using this method.
