Kami means 'paper' in japanese, and Ito 'strip' - Kami-ito. I’m using a thin but strong handmade mulberry paper. It’s cut into 2mm strips, put under a damp cloth for several hours in order the for the paper to relax. It is then spun on an Indian spinning tool called a book charkha. This is the tool that Gandhi traveled with while protesting British rule. This beautiful thread is then used in many of my handwoven pieces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628f81fe1a1fd1483fccb4d1/0fe9f9fa-8fb1-4245-828f-0d0ef95be656/IMG_0531.jpg Kami-ito https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628f81fe1a1fd1483fccb4d1/23c7fe4b-53c3-4436-9679-fab11c3eadc0/IMG_0226.jpg Kami-ito https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628f81fe1a1fd1483fccb4d1/5c96a937-e766-463d-a697-5962ee5a0d7e/Book+Charkha.jpg Kami-ito https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628f81fe1a1fd1483fccb4d1/52c43667-e591-4038-88e6-f4da77b8b415/IMG_0767.jpg Kami-ito https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628f81fe1a1fd1483fccb4d1/a07f98cf-8bc6-48ce-8351-41020d6f9b2c/IMG_0545+2.jpg Kami-ito https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/628f81fe1a1fd1483fccb4d1/2d999d39-4884-4e37-88d5-b9ed91e97aa2/IMG_0717.jpg Kami-ito
