What is Coffee Sashiko Fukin?
Coffee fukin is a Hanafukin (sashiko stitched kitchen cloth) with brown thread on navy fabric. A few years ago, I made one for my husband and it’s been his favorite ever since. He always uses it when making coffee and that’s why I’m calling it “coffee fukin.”
What's good about coffee fukin?
- The thick texture with woven sashiko patterns on both sides
- Excellent for insulating heat and keep coffee warm
- The coffee staines don’t stand out with the brown thread color
- Perfect for camping or surfing trip (This is what my husband says)
