[Limited Edition] Sashiko-Ori Project Bag – 濃藍 (45-484)

Story

Made from traditional Sashiko-Ori, a richly textured fabric. 

Sashiko-Ori woven from indigo-dyed yarn gradually lightens from the raised areas of the surface, developing into lighter shades of blue over time. This creates a beautiful contrast with the deeper blue in the recessed areas, allowing you to experience the evolving beauty of “blue that matures with use.” It is a signature item that best embodies this concept.

Despite its compact size, the bag can hold three to four standard balls of yarn (approximately 30–40 g each). Made from thick, firm fabric and reinforced with stitching at all four corners, it stands on its own to provide a stable workspace on a desk or your lap. The open design also makes it easy to pull out yarn and access your tools.

Loop one handle around your arm to naturally cinch the opening, keeping the ball of yarn securely inside while you knit. You can carry the bag on your arm and pull out the yarn as you knit, making it a reliable companion for knitting on the go, whether you're traveling or relaxing at a café.
