Sashiko & Denim creates such cool & artistic wear. I am in love with our Denim which is full of Sashiko Stitching. At the same time, some patterns & some styles of Sashiko aren’t the ideal suit for the stitching. Often, Denim Fabric is woven as twill. A majority of our Sashiko fabric is plain woven. The difference between how it is woven may not be significant when a stitcher focuses on making one good stitch. However, when it comes to finding a rhythm, it takes some time to get used to it. The key is “Communication” to the denim – each fabric has its character, and they have their own preference, too.

Sashiko originated from the concept of appreciating the fabric by strengthening it. I really wish that we can be mindful of this original concept and avoid damaging the fabric more than necessary. Using a proper thread & needle would be one important step to care for the Fabric – some threads may be too weak/strong for fabric – some needles may simply damage the fabric. I hope all the stitchers keep learning the abundance of wisdom of Sashiko.

デニムと一目刺しの相性はあまり良くないだろうなぁと思っていたのですが（実際多分あんまり良くないのですが）、特定の一目刺し、例えば米刺しなんかは上手くいくようです。刺し子をして＆履き続けて半年以上。良い感じに馴染んできたかなぁと思っています。

ほとんどのデニムは綾織りの布地で作られているので、平織の布地になれた感覚からすると馴染み方が課題になります。それは運針を通して布に聞いていく感じにはなるのですが、やっぱり相性が悪い柄や刺し方は存在していて。デニムと刺し子。見た目はカッコいいですが、布地への負担を増やしてしまうだけの刺し子は避けたいものです。
