Sashiko Samplers

DARUMA's Sashiko Sampler comes in two colors - white and navy. The patterns are printed on durable kitchen cloth fabric (sarashi) and can be washed off after finishing. In other words, DO NOT WASH OR STEAM until you finish stitching or you will lose your pattern.

Material: 100% Cotton

Size: 12.2" x 12.2" (31 cm x 31 cm)
Made in Japan

Pick your project: Just one Sashiko Thread (thin) card or skein of Sashiko Embroidery Floss is enough to complete a sampler. Sashiko Needles sold separately.

Sashiko napkins have been one of the most common forms of Japanese craft: stitching elaborate patterns on daily-use kitchen cloths. The simple running stitch patterns not only make the fabric beautiful and special, but also makes them more durable. People used it for cooking first, then for wiping a dining table, then in the end, for cleaning the entire house.
