Slowstitch Studio, based in Chiang Mai, creates contemporary textiles using time-honored techniques.

Our work is rooted in the ancient Japanese art of shibori stitch-resist dyeing – a handcrafted process that transforms fabric into one-of-a-kind pieces with individual characteristics.

With every stitch placed by hand, the fabric is bound, dyed and then released, revealing color gradations and blurred-edge motifs that seem to hold movement within them.
