It is \"Doro(mud) Zome(dyeing).\" There are several kinds of \"Oshima Tsumugi\":\"Doro Oshima,\" \"Ai(indigo) Oshima,\" \"Doro Ai Oshima,\" \"Iro(color) Oshima\" and \"Natsu(summer) Oshima.\"\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" color=\"#000099\" style=\"color: #000099; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003eCondition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e Excellent.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003eSuitable for making a kimono (12-yard roll) or accessories\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"YokoDana Kimono","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44078649147479,"sku":"8121","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1135\/9848\/files\/IMG_6478.jpg?v=1785182787","url":"https:\/\/www.yokodana.com\/products\/8121-1980s-japanese-ohshima-tsumugi-silk-fabric-deadstock-piece-asanoha-hempleaf-motif","provider":"YokoDana Kimono","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
