grass although it comes in a rainbow of soft and beautiful colors The special grass for grasscloth grows in the mountains of Japan and making the wall covering is the only industry of some towns there now that grasscloth is so much in demand The grass plants are gathered by women with crude sickle-like implements and carried on their backs After the grasses are boiled spread out in the hot sun to ferment then are washed in mountain streams Fibers selected for grasscloth are knotted in skeins and almost every family owns an ancient loom on which the fibers are woven by hand with skill developed through centuries The filmy web of grass is mounted on a backing of tinted rice paper and the grasscloth is completed by hand-staining in the colors we like to scheme into our homes 4 Television on
