Tea Towel, Yukata

Rain on the window, the kettle going, nothing else to do.

Le Jacquard Français wove this at Gérardmer in the Vosges. Jacquard damask, so the Japanese umbrellas read on both faces. Woven in triple-pocket at 230 g/m2, a soft light cloth close to Japanese cotton gauze. 100% cotton, 24 x 31 in, in Indigo, a deep blue.

For the friend who makes tea properly. For your aunt in the country. For a host with quiet taste.
