This process preserves the original character of the fabric, from its texture and drape to the quiet richness of its pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"923\" data-start=\"615\"\u003eBecause each yarn begins with a different kimono, no two variants are exactly alike. Many are made from silk, while others may include cotton, wool, linen, or blended fabrics. Some feel soft and airy, some smooth and polished, and others carry the gentle crepe texture unique to traditional Japanese fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1258\" data-start=\"925\"\u003eUnlike conventional spun yarn, Kimono Yarn behaves more like a soft textile ribbon. It can be used for crochet, weaving, stitching, wrapping, tassels, decorative accents, and a wide variety of handmade projects. Beautiful on its own or paired with other fibers, it adds depth, movement, and a one-of-a-kind presence to creative work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1436\" data-start=\"1081\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1276\" data-start=\"1243\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1254\" data-start=\"1243\"\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1257\" data-start=\"1254\"\u003eVaries by variant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1306\" data-start=\"1278\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1289\" data-start=\"1278\"\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1292\" data-start=\"1289\"\u003eApprox. 30 m\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1306\" data-start=\"1278\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1289\" data-start=\"1278\"\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1292\" data-start=\"1289\"\u003eApprox. 2 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1321\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1324\" data-start=\"1321\"\u003eUpcycled kimono fabric\u003cbr data-end=\"1349\" data-start=\"1346\"\u003eFiber content varies by variant and may include silk, cotton, wool, linen, or blended fabrics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003eFabric Thickness Guide:\u003cbr data-end=\"75\" data-start=\"72\"\u003e　1 = Very lightweight\u003cbr data-end=\"98\" data-start=\"95\"\u003e　2 = Lightweight\u003cbr data-end=\"116\" data-start=\"113\"\u003e　3 = Medium\u003cbr data-end=\"129\" data-start=\"126\"\u003e　4 = Heavy\u003cbr data-end=\"141\" data-start=\"138\"\u003e　5 = Very heavy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePale Yellow with Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow Flowers:\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSynthetic fabric with a smooth, polished surface.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFabric weight: Medium (3\/5)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReverse side: White\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1444\" data-start=\"1308\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe reverse side is white, but it is not very noticeable because the face color is pale.
