Yuki Tsumugi obi are available in eight-sun and nine-sun sizes, but the nine-sun obi, which are woven thinly, are especially light. This lightness is due to the fact that the silk floss is hand-pulled without any twisting. And the silk floss thread gives it a soft, airy texture.

This process is repeated 20 to 40 times depending on the season and color. Hachijojima has a rainy climate due to the influence of the Kuroshio Current. The color develops in the joy of sunny days. After absorbing the natural energy of the sun and the plants, the thread is then hung on the loom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e In particular, the \"black\" of Hachijojima is dyed using mud as a mordant.
