Today's featured textile design is "Tadasu Forest",the popular pattern used for our Ise Cotton Scarf.
Here's the note from the designer, Wakisaka.
The Shimogamo Shrine in Kyoto is preserved as a world heritage site. Tadasu Forest,which is part of the shrine, is full of native tall trees which make it a very relaxing space. Here, I tried to express the different shades of leaves and shapes by using detailed gingham and plaid patterns to achieve the richness of color of the forest.

世界遺産となっている下鴨神社。
原生林の鎮守の森。
木々がそびえ立っていて、気持ちのいい空間が広がっている。
細かい市松や格子柄を使って、葉の濃淡や形の微妙な変化を表現し、豊かで多彩な森の感じが出せればと願った。
