Medium-Stole Gara-bou “Herringbone-Dot Black” / Cotton / IND 330930-3 インド/コットン ガラ紡 ミディアムストール Herringbone-Dot Black
This stole is made from organic cotton grown in India.
The “Herringbone-Dot Black” type features charcoal-black warp threads woven together with a mix of black and white weft threads. It is a versatile medium-size stole that can be wrapped or draped with ease.
The yarn used for this stole is called “Gara-bou,” spun on a traditional Japanese spinning machine known as a Garabou, which was developed in the late Meiji period (late 19th to early 20th century).
The Garabou machine slowly stretches the cotton fibers upward from a small cylinder while rotating them, twisting the fibers together to create its uniquely textured yarn.
Its name “Gara-bou” comes from the rhythmic “gara-gara-gara” sound the machine makes while it spins.
Because the yarn is spun very slowly and with great care, it holds plenty of air, resulting in a simple, hand-spun-like texture.
This gentle, organic character is something that modern mass-production machinery cannot create — a quality unique to Gara-bou yarn.
Here, we introduce a stole made from Gara-bou yarn woven slowly on a traditional power loom called a “rikishokki.” The yarn is woven into a gentle, waffle-like texture, creating a fabric that feels warm and full of air.
This Gara-bou series is a product by Suno & Morrison — a Japan-based brand known for their thoughtful, carefully crafted textiles.
At first glance the fabric looks loosely textured,but when you touch it, you’ll find it surprisingly soft and airy, with excellent breathability and even quick-drying qualities. What is most striking is its lightness. When worn, it drapes naturally and settles gently against the body, offering a calm, comforting feel on the skin.The softly textured Gara-bou yarn creates an irregular dotted pattern—like gentle snow falling across a night sky. Wrapped around the neck as a muffler, it forms a pleasant volume and adds a graceful touch to your outfit.It is a practical size that can be draped over the shoulders or used as a lap blanket. The charcoal-gray warp softens the contrast between the black and white tones, creating a gentle harmony. The herringbone pattern rises subtly across the surface, adding a refined, elegant touch.Pair it with a basket bag or a handheld tote for your outings. You can tie it in different styles or simply drape it over your shoulders — one of the charms of this stole is that you can adjust how you wear it depending on the weather or your mood that day.
Navy-blue lines run along both sides, adding a gentle brightness to the monotone palette.
In winter, it provides warm protection, and in spring or autumn, you can lightly wrap it around your neck or shoulders. Made from 100% cotton, it has a soft and gentle feel on the skin — a comfortable choice for those with sensitive skin, and even for babies.
The refined balance of the warp and weft colors, together with the warm, softly textured feel, brings a gentle lift to your mood — or a quiet sense of calm — depending on the moment.
It is a stole you will find yourself reaching for naturally, one that feels reliably comforting at your side.
We hope you enjoy it in many different scenes of your daily life.
【Care and Handling】
*For washing, hand-washing is recommended. If you use a washing machine, be sure to place the stole in a laundry net and select the gentle or hand-wash cycle. Washing without a net may cause fibers from the fringe to come loose and adhere to other clothing.
Adding a small amount of fabric softener and drying the stole in the sun will allow the yarn to hold air and regain its soft, fluffy texture.
*Because Gara-bou yarn is spun from “fallen cotton,” which consists of short fibers, some fibers may cling to your clothing at the beginning of use. This will gradually settle, but during the initial period we recommend avoiding dark colors such as black or navy when wearing a natural-colored Gara-bou stole.
Using a clothing brush or a lint roller on the stole can also help the fibers settle more quickly.
*Due to the uneven nature of the yarn, the size may vary slightly. You may also notice irregularities in the yarn or weave — these are characteristics of Gara-bou and not defects.
*If you find loose threads or fibers during use, please trim them gently with scissors without pulling.
