Add traditional Japanese craftsmanship to your next handmade project with this classic Edo-uchi braided cord in Asahanada, a serene shade sitting right between blue and light blue. Measuring approximately 5mm in diameter, this thick cord features a glossy sheen that adds an instant touch of elegance to handmade drawstring pouches, accessories, and textile crafts.
Edo-uchi himo has long been an essential material in Japanese traditional handcrafts, prized for its smooth, high-end texture that pairs beautifully with rayon or polyester chirimen crepe fabric. Crafted from 100% rayon, it brings a luxurious finish to all kinds of creative sewing.
This cord is sold by the meter, so you can order just what you need. Note that longer orders may include a joint partway through the length, and color can vary slightly between dye lots (as well as by monitor settings when viewing product photos). If you need a larger quantity, a discounted 15m skein is also available.
Because rayon can shrink or lose color when wet, please keep this cord dry to preserve its beautiful finish.
