Zokin are traditional Japanese dustrags which are almost always made from layered and sashiko stitched scraps of cloth.

This is a small-sized and very handsome zokin which is sewn from pieced-together recycled cotton cloth which has been beautifully sashiko stitched, giving the hand woven cotton cloth a wonderful, crinkly texture.

The stitching is beautifully executed. Just wonderful.

A very good looking zokin with a lovely composition and good color.
