It was in a place kind of like a community center back in Taiwan. Lots of seniors had set up a small market with handmade items and processed farm products, selling things while chatting with each other. It felt so warm and welcoming.
The indigo-dyeing class was split into groups, and everyone used simple techniques to make a one-of-a-kind indigo-dyed hand towel that’s a great keepsake. I really liked it.

Tokushima’s specialty indigo is called Awa Ai, which is used to dye sports underwear and such produced by the fashion maker “STUDIO N2.” They produce hand towels. Awa Ai is known for its quality and is called True Indigo, distinguished from other indigos.
The Awa Ai is made with lye. This is used to dye each hand towel in beautiful colors. With each use, the texture becomes soft. Since the towels are dyed with Indigo, which has an antibacterial effect and helps eliminate odor, they are perfect for daily use.
