Visited this printed textiles/hand-craft shop in Daikanyama today with K. Quite inspired and excited by it to say the least! Bought some fabric to make a cushion cover from (the assistant is just getting the roll down for me here!).

The first mechanical weaving mill stood there in 1851, driven by water power. Since 1879 the new owner gave it its name and the mill was then steam powered. There was a weaving and spinning mill, a dyeing and bleachery. 270 people worked there in its heyday. The mill operated until 2004. The last owner lived alone in his closed factory and died there in 2011.
I'm pleased to say that Yan is taking an interest in textiles - he's seen here contemplating a 30 year old resist/discharge dyed batik.
