The yarns (threads) are dyed first, and then the cloth is woven. Often a few different weights or textures of yarn (thread) are woven into the cloth to create a more textured fabric.Weaving withdyed threads means the colour is embedded in the fabric and will not fade off the surface with washing. In most cases it alsomeans both sides of the fabric can be used as the ‘right’ side, althougheach side willusually lookslightly different.

Pre-shrunk, these fabrics keep their colour and body when washed. Haori Textiles Judging colour and texture on a screen:Judging the colour and texture of fabric on a screen is difficult, so when possible I have included Crayola crayons to help you judge colours, and/or a photograph with a few other dyed yarn fabrics. To help judge texture there is a close up.These fabrics are also available in packages of smaller cuts in mixed colours on this site.
