Suggested for Shawl (uncut) · wrap skirt (uncut) · sleeveless top · gift

This is a single piece of handwoven Thai silk, 2 metres long and 1 metre wide. The ground is a pale blush pink. Across it run close rows of small orange marks, each with the soft, feathered edge that only tie-dyed thread gives. One end of the cloth finishes with a wide band of orange zigzag points that fade down into plain silk, and both ends are edged in lilac. The silk is light, and the small slubs of the thread show in the weave. There is one piece only.

The story in the pattern

We call it Marigold Rain: small orange marks falling evenly over a pale ground, in the colour of the marigolds that are strung into garlands and offered all over Thailand.

How it was woven

Mudmee is Thai weft ikat: the pattern is made before the cloth exists. Bundles of weft thread are tied off by hand and dyed, then woven so that each dyed section lands in its place. The slightly blurred outline of every orange mark is the trace of that process, and it is how you tell mudmee from a print. The zigzag band at one end is tied and dyed the same way.

Care

Dry cleaning is recommended. If you wash it by hand, use cold water and a mild soap, do not wring, dry in the shade, and iron on low heat from the reverse side.
