A soft cotton indigo-dyed thread with a moderate amount of fuzz that is suitable for sashiko. The sukumo is fermented and each piece is dyed by hand. It is left uneven so that it gives a three-dimensional effect when it is pierced. When washing, brown lye may come out, so we recommend removing the lye before use.
