The result is a mottled design produced by undyed places in the silk yarn where the cotton warp prevented dye penetration. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOlympus Co. of Japan as developed a 100% cotton fabric similar in look and texture to the true Tsumugi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThese fabrics are also a \"shot\" fabric which means they have different colored warp and weft threads like the tsumugi fabrics.
