{"product_id":"boro-style-drawstring-pouch-2","title":"Boro-style Drawstring Pouch 2","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis pouch is inspired by the Kinchaku bags of Japan. It is constructed from pieces of traditional Japanese linen and cotton including Takumi, Azumino and Kobayashi, with some raw edges left deliberately revealed to allow some fraying over time. However the pieces are safely secured using sashiko stitch in rows, and by an iron-on layer below, so only the very edges may fray. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe drawstring is threaded through ‘koki’ – plastic loops which hold the cord. The cord is cotton. The lining is fabric printed by Dashwood Fabrics, with a design typical of the Aomori prefecture in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI use a pouch to hold my embroidery when I go out, but it can be used in many ways, such as holding cables and air buds, makeup, wrapped sweets, medicines, driving glasses and wipes or pens and sketching tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe price you pay, minus packing and shipping, will be donated to WIRES, the Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Service.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pouch was constructed using a machine, but all the sashiko stitching is hand-done by myself. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fabric and threads are all cotton. The only non-natural fabric is the iron on interfacing to keep the stitching stable. The koki are plastic, unfortunately. I suggest gentle, cold hand or machine washing and then drying in the shade. It can be ironed if necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pouch has 4 sides 19.5 x 14.5 cm, with a square base 14.5 x 14.5 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Kindly Tortle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50793602974002,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0761\/3150\/0338\/files\/ujzxu7_jpg.jpg?v=1767869107","url":"https:\/\/madeit.surf\/products\/boro-style-drawstring-pouch-2","provider":"Madeit Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
